Pragmatic Cso Podcast

In this week's show I talk about getting facetime without feeling like you are banging your head against the wall. Basically a key part of Step #1 and in a broader perspective, your success as a CSO is about building relationships with the senior team and understand what is important to them. How do you do this, when they are pretty busy and don't really want to spend any time with you? I map out a 3 step process (and hopefully you only need two steps) to get on their calendar and also talk about the need for persistence. The podcast runs for 6:05. Music this week is (of course), the Jungle intro and Peter Gabriel's "Don't Give Up" to send you on your merry way.
