Here is the 2nd video in the series for the new course.

I created a gift for members here. It is an assessment tool that you can use to determine where you need help in your CEO journey. I am attaching the document here, but I will also find a place for it in the classroom. Let me know what you think.

I have a new course I am building that will be free, here in the community. It is a series of five videos. Before I post it in the classroom, I will post them here in the discussion group. Let me know your thoughts.

Hello 👋 everyone am new here 😊

CEO Mastery is defined as "the possession of expert skill." in the job of CEO. In business, mastery refers to the development of expert skills in areas such as leadership, finance, management, marketing, and other critical areas that contribute to a business’s growth and success. While the Exponential Enterprise Formula embodies these principles of mastering business skills, it goes beyond that. Your business should not be the only focus; your life is also your "business," and the ultimate goal is to live a fulfilling and satisfying life. Your business can be the tool that enables this, but only if the right skills are applied. So, what skills are needed to reach this level of mastery? - The skill of creating a competitive advantage that positions your business as a leader in the market. - The skill of legal management to ensure the structure of your business is both secure and adaptable. - The skill of strategic tax planning to maximize profitability while minimizing tax liabilities. - The skill of creating a business that operates independently of your daily involvement, allowing for scalability and sustainability. The Exponential Enterprise Formula The Exponential Enterprise Formula is designed to guide business owners through the essential steps of developing these expert skills. With this framework, you will gain the insight, mindset, and tools necessary to build a business that not only operates efficiently but also has the potential for exponential growth. The formula helps you become the leader your business needs to achieve its objectives in all critical areas, including competitive advantage, legal strategy, and financial performance. The ultimate goal is to create a business that operates with minimal oversight from you—giving you the freedom to focus on scaling and new opportunities.
