Time To Press Pause - A Podcast for CEOs by CEOs
2024 is the year of transition.
To successfully navigate through the realities and the hype, CEOs need the time and space to focus.
It’s time to press pause.
Ellen Williams, CEO of The Salient Strategist, is the host of these raw, intimate CEO "press pause" stories. Listen to the why, when, and how they knew it was time to press pause and the resulting outcomes.
Pausing to focus is crucial, whether it is minutes, days, weeks, or longer because some decisions can be made quickly, but many can’t and shouldn’t.
