  • Carolyn Dewar: What Sets Exceptional CEOs Apart

    Carolyn Dewar: What Sets Exceptional CEOs Apart
    Oct 7 2025
    We are joined by Carolyn Dewar, McKinsey senior partner and author of CEO Excellence, to unpack what makes great leaders stand out. Drawing on extensive research from her book CEO Excellence, Carolyn reveals the bold mindset that defines exceptional CEOs, the critical risks they take, and why focusing on expanding the pie drives long-term success. She shares insights on the four seasons of being a CEO, from early bold moves to finishing strong, and why openness to learning often matters more than confidence. Listeners will learn how CEOs can avoid analysis paralysis, manage their calendars ruthlessly, lead through uncertainty, and prepare for smooth transitions that save businesses billions. Greatness lives in everyone; it just needs unlocking. FranklinCovey's newest guide, Where are all the Great Leaders: Solving the Leadership Crisis in a Disruptive World, is an invitation to reset.

    Sep 23 2025

She shares how relentless curiosity, daily “level ups,” and the courage to embrace optimism shaped her career as an early investor in transformative companies like Uber, SpaceX, and Pokémon Go. Along the way, Cyan reveals the role of aphorisms in her personal growth, why conviction matters in investment decisions, and how play and wonder fuel both creativity and leadership.
