Recently I've been reminded that as much as our brains believe they can control and predict what's going to happen, they can't. Life is impermanent and there is plenty that we can neither predict nor control. What we do control is our choices in the present. What we do have is the moment right here in the now. Sometimes it can be a powerful exercise to remember that there are no guarantees, that today is all you have, and to make decisions and choices from that reality.  In this episode of the podcast, I'm welcoming you, not to the “new” year, but to the “now” year and inviting you to stop waiting and start creating and living in the daily rhythm of your goals and dreams. I'm sharing five tips to help you make this new year the year where you live the life you want to live right now.   **You can find the Interview with David Roche that I mention in this podcast here: https://www.richroll.com/podcast/david-roche-875

On this episode of the Customers First Podcast, Tacey has the pleasure of speaking with David Roche, a seasoned professional coach and mentor specializing in aiding first-time CEOs. We delve into David's extensive career journey, which began with a diverse background in retail and eventually led him to establish Grey Area Coaching. He shares insights from his book, "Become a Successful First-Time CEO," a comprehensive guide that has quickly soared to become an Amazon number one bestseller, offering unique strategies and practical advice for aspiring leaders.    As we explore the nuanced landscape of transitioning into a CEO role, David points out the often-overlooked support systems that first-time CEOs require during such monumental shifts. He discusses the precarious balance of external expectations and internal team dynamics that can lead to new CEO failures if not managed carefully. With statistics indicating a staggering loss of market capital due to poorly managed transitions, David stresses the importance of fostering trustworthy relationships and mentoring networks to bridge the gap between selection and effective leadership, providing practical advice that can be applied in various leadership contexts.   We also unpack the critical factors that contribute to successful leadership, drawing parallels to the role of a conductor in an orchestra. David passionately illustrates how a CEO must nurture individual talents within their team and coordinate efforts to ensure that the collective performance exceeds the sum of its parts. His insights on leadership style and team dynamics resonate powerfully, reinforcing that great leaders do not just command; they inspire and cultivate a supportive environment for their teams to flourish. He encourages leaders to embrace the idea that seeking assistance is not a sign of weakness but rather a strategic step toward achieving sustained success.   Timestamps: 12:34: The Challenges of First-Time CEOs 14:58: Importance of Strong Leadership 18:23: Coaching and Mentoring in Leadership   David's Contact Information: LinkedIn: @davidroche Website: https://greyareacoaching.co.uk Link to Book: Become a Successful First Time CEO   Tacey's Contact Information: All Social Media: @taceyatkinson Website: https://www.taceyatkinson.com   Thank you for tuning in, and I look forward to having more valuable conversations together in the future.

David Roche smashed the 19-year-old course record at the Leadville Trail 100 Run this year. It was the first time that he'd run 100 miles, and even more incredibly, only months after a very different kind of smash. In April, while riding his bike, he was hit by a car and thrown 100 feet through the air and into a ditch, sustaining lacerations, a broken wrist, and a concussion. Far from derailing his training and aspirations, the accident intensified his motivation. For complete show notes and links, visit our website at runningforreal.com/episode419.
