At an organizational level have you focused so much on process improvements and incremental gains that you’ve failed to recognize opportunity and innovate?

Okay, so you founded the company, but does that mean you should also be the chief executive? Perhaps you were the right person for the job initially, but has the company outgrown your management ability? As the founder, can you, or should you, attempt to grow with the company? CEO…that title sounds good doesn’t it?

You will also be competing to retain talented employees that other companies would like to lure away. What about competing against the innovation of others that could cause the obsolescence of your product or service? If you don’t have direct competition you’ll surely have indirect competition.

They are the ones innovating and breaking-down barriers. As much as most companies don’t want to admit this, it is highly unlikely that you have anyone in your organization that has great leadership attitude and aptitude that hasn’t already been identified. They are the ones people turn to when things get tough.

The best leaders are focused on leading change and innovation to keep their organizations fresh, dynamic and growing. They find ways to consistently engage them and incorporate them into their innovation and planning initiatives. Bottom line – leaders who build a static business doom themselves to failure.

My advice to CEOs, regardless of whether you’re running a start-up or a Fortune 500 company, is to go see things for yourself. If your CFO handles all communications with your banking relationships, and your Chief Investment Officer handles all of your investor relations, you’re flat out missing the boat.
