Think Like CEOs

Think Like CEOs - What is it? 

Many individuals aspire to be a CEO but very few turn into one. To unravel the mystery of why some corporate executives go on to become leaders and some don't, The Daily Star conducted a candid series of talks with 20 eminent business leaders of Bangladesh over Facebook LIVE sessions from September 2020 to February 2021. It's called 'The Chief Executive Show', and the series informs well on the vital traits that make a CEO — the leader responsible for making the high-stakes decisions, guiding teams, nurturing talent, selling ideas, managing crises and moving mountains for the company. 'Think like CEOs' bottles up the in-depth interviews and presents the business and life lessons of the corporate trailblazers. This is how CEOs run the show, and this will guide you to prepare yourself to have a mindset of a CEO.
