CarTalk with Kartik #255: Build Leaders Before Titles

CarTalk with Kartik #255: Build Leaders Before TitlesAre we promoting leaders too fast? That’s the question one of the CEOs I work with asked me recently. Having worked with over 50 CEOs, fueling millions in revenue growth, here’s my answer.Growth breaks when leaders move faster than their experience. Titles are easy to give, judgment is not. Strong leadership takes time to learn how to manage people, motivate teams, handle pressure, and make decisions that scale beyond one function. When companies rush promotions, mistakes multiply and culture suffers. The smartest CEOs pace leadership growth, build depth first, and promote when readiness is proven, not just ambition. So build leaders before titles.This insight comes from page 238 of my bestselling business book Product Marketing Wisdom.
