Greg Cleary: The People Decision Every CEO Puts Off (and What It Costs)
From WholeCEO With Lisa G Podcast · 24:40
Show by Lisa Goldenthal
You can have the right strategy, the right systems, and the right people in the wrong seats. And one delayed people decision could be costing your company more than you realize. Greg Cleary has sat in 149 boardrooms. As one of the first Certified EOS Implementers and the community's number one Implementer, he has seen firsthand what separates leaders who build lasting businesses from those who struggle to move forward. In this episode of WholeCEO with Lisa G., Greg joins Lisa to unpack why CEOs wait too long to make difficult people decisions, why the best leaders never climb alone, and what it takes to surround yourself with people who challenge you, guide you, and help you reach the next level. They also explore why AI can provide answers but cannot replace the wisdom of someone who has already navigated the mountain you're trying to climb. Because leadership isn't about having all the answers. It's about knowing who should be climbing alongside you. If you're a CEO holding onto a people decision you know needs to happen, this conversation is for you. Ready to stop being the bottleneck and build a business that doesn't depend on you for every decision? Listen now, then share this episode with a fellow CEO who needs to hear it.
