About this listen
As founder and CEO, you know you need to hire a COO. You need a COO who can help you build the company you don’t know how to build on your own.
The Second in Command is your go-to guidebook when you’re ready to scale up. Cameron Herold details every aspect of the process, from knowing when you need to hire a COO, through identifying and hiring the right COO candidate, to successfully onboarding and working with your COO, VP Operations or Director Operations.
The Second in Command reveals the benefits a skilled COO brings to companies and explores the many ways a COO mastermind or COO forum can help grow your COO grow their skills, confidence and network. You’ll learn about the different types of COO that exists and understand the role each COO type plays. Discover how to bring a COO into your company with the least disruption and avoid common problems before they arise. There is no need to go it alone.

Eileen Sharp and Vic Hightower were frustrated. After years of profitable, predictable growth, Swan Services was in a rut. Meetings were called and discussions held, but few decisions were made and even less got done. People were pointing fingers and assigning blame, but nothing happened to solve Swan’s mounting problems. It felt as though they were working harder than ever but with less impact. The company Eileen and Vic had founded and built for 10 years was a different place. It just wasn’t fun anymore.

There's no shortage of networking and entrepreneurship advice in books and on social media in today's world-but it's harder than ever to know what's authentic. To make matters worse, taking the wrong advice can result in superficial connections, transactional relationships, and unsatisfying interactions with others without any real rapport. Fortunately, as entrepreneur and marketer extraordinaire Joe Polish has discovered, there's a simple (though sometimes not easy) way out that begins with one question: "What's in it for them?"

Story
Some people are born with a drive often seen in entrepreneurs, pro-athletes, inventors, adventurers, and Navy SEALs. It's in their DNA - research has shown that certain genes can manifest resilient and highly focused people who can also be impulsive and easily distracted. While these traits enabled our ancient ancestors to survive, if you have these traits today, it can create havoc in your life. You may be diagnosed with ADHD, ADD, or OCD. But what the world tells you is a disability or disorder may actually be your greatest gift. Now it's time to learn how to use it.
