146 - Rise of the Business-Like CCO Part 2: Results Over Effort

Welcome to Part 2 of the Rise of the Business-Like CCO, a free video training from June 2023. This video training is broken up into three different sessions and today’s podcast episode is the replay of Day 2.

Now that we know the common and major mistakes from Part 1 of this series, it’s time to jump into the metrics and strategies of the business-like CCO. In our discussion today, we consider where to focus our time and energy and which metrics we should be looking at in specific scenarios. What you will find is contrary to what we’ve believed for a long time - effort doesn’t always mean results.
