Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.

I have the honor and pleasure of welcoming Ty Wiggins to the show today. He advises leading companies on leadership transitions and executive onboarding to ensure more expedient paths to effectiveness. His new book, The New CEO, is based on original research and candid conversations with world-leading CEOs. In the book, Ty offers a backstage pass to nailing your first year as a leader and sometimes CEO, whether it's your first, second, or third time in the role.

THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… leaders who want to learn from the experiences of the most successful CEOs.

TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… stepping into the role of CEO is a big step, whether it’s your first time or not. After working with many CEOs on their transitions, Ty has picked up on patterns and lessons. In this episode, he underscores the nuanced nature of CEO transitions and the need for thoughtful, strategic approaches to leadership.

Key takeaways:

The significance of early actions and decision-making during the first 12 to 24 months of a CEO's tenure.
The two most common regrets CEOs have about their transitions.
How to strike a balance between addressing immediate challenges and investing in long-term growth.
How to navigate the complexities of organizational culture and communication.

WHAT I LOVE MOST… the decisions you make at the senior leadership level end up somewhere. They aren’t just problems solved in the boardroom. Ty asks the question, “Is your decision landing well? Is it theoretical, or is it actually helping?”. Add these questions into your decision-making process to understand the full effect.

RELOAD: Growth Is a Decision with Daniel Marcos 34:48

2 days ago34:48

34:48

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week I’m reflecting on a conversation I had with Daniel Marcos. Daniel is a Co-Founder and the CEO of Gazelles Growth Institute, an online executive education company for C-level executives at fast-growing firms. Daniel is also the Co-Founder of Inflection (Gazelles Mexico division), a keynote speaker, and CEO-Coach. Across all these efforts, his goal is to help 1 million entrepreneurs scale their companies faster and with “less drama.” Daniel is also an ambassador for Singularity University in Austin, TX and he co-authored the book Start-Up to Scale-Up. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… entrepreneurs interested in starting a company and small and mid-size businesses looking to grow and scale successfully. TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… growth is not easy. It does not come without sacrifice. It’s important to make the decision to grow after careful consideration. More companies have died from excessive opportunities than the lack thereof, so it behooves leaders and organizations to set their objectives thoughtfully, be disciplined, and scale their mindset adequately. Daniel breaks down the 4 main stages of growth and the biggest challenges to be found in each. WHAT I LOVE MOST… speaking with anyone who is maniacally focused on growth and can get us thinking critically and intentionally about growth, scaling, and continued success.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. I have the honor and pleasure of welcoming Christoph Senn to the show today. Christoph is an adjunct professor of marketing at INSEAD, one of the world's leading and largest graduate business schools. He's joining us today from Switzerland - it’s always great to have the international flavor to the show. He is Codirector of INSEAD Marketing & Sales Excellence Initiative, amongst many other things, and an advisor to some of the largest companies in the world. He has a book out that joined the great ones that I enjoyed reading at the end of 2024 called Triple Fit Strategy. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone looking to build stronger customer relationships and drive growth through a more strategic approach to sales. TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… traditional sales approaches focus on pitching products, but real growth comes from understanding and aligning with your customer’s strategy. Christoph introduces the "Triple Fit Strategy," a framework that moves beyond transactional selling to create long-term, mutually beneficial relationships. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Building strong customer relationships requires aligning with their strategy, not just selling a product. Shifting from transactional selling to strategic collaboration drives long-term business growth. Understanding what truly matters to your customer creates more meaningful and effective engagements. A broader perspective on value can make negotiations less about price and more about partnership. Sales teams that focus on customer success are more likely to drive sustainable results. WHAT I LOVE MOST… Christoph’s perspective on treating customers as if you were part of the same company. When you align with their priorities and think beyond your own product, you open the door to real partnership and long-term success.

THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone looking to build stronger relationships—at work or in life—through the power of better questions.

THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone who wants to succeed and learn how to use their indispensable failures to get there faster! TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE…..it’s the serious student of success that treats failure as the indispensable teacher. Unless you’re able to first move through the pains of rejection and the fear of the attempt, you will not be able to move forward to create the lifestyle you dream of. The key here is to be dispassionate about failure and check your irrational fears, ego, and the fear of losing prestige because this can paralyze your progress. Bill shares some wisdom and strategies for addressing fear, failure, and the pursuit of success. WHAT I LOVE MOST… it’s a pleasure to have someone on the What’s Next!

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week I’m reflecting on a conversation with Heather Monahan that I think is valuable to everyone, no exceptions!

As a Chief Revenue Officer in Media, Heather Monahan is a Glass Ceiling Award winner, named one of the most Influential Women in Radio in 2017, and Thrive Global named her a Limit Breaking Female Founder in 2018.

THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone who wants to reach his or her full potential and needs that important confidence boost! TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… take ownership of your mental platform and be intentional about the tape you run repeatedly in your head. Confidence is the key to unlocking your full potential, and that confident mindset starts with you. It starts by developing that confidence skill through discipline and frequency. When that confidence muscle is strong, scary does not mean freeze, it means go faster. So, take action! Major action is the catalyst that accelerates the confidence growth cycle. There are many paths to confidence, but not all the steps along those paths are created equal, and the bigger the risk, the bigger the confidence reward. Stop letting self-limiting beliefs and fear tell you you’re stuck. No excuses. Just take action! WHAT I LOVE MOST… Heather has no shortage of passion for building confidence, taking risks, “firing your villains,” and making the big decisions that will lead you where you need to be and doing what you love!

Tom is a passionate champion of disruptive technologies who began his career as an associate at BCG, immersed in the shift to “big-box” retail. He later served as president of Ticketmaster.com, where he helped lead the transition to online ticketing. Then, as CEO of Ancestry.com, he built one of the Internet’s first online content subscription businesses.

TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… brands should always put trust at the center of their organization and make a concerted effort to build it up over time. Increasingly, the sources brands are and should be using to do this are Influencers. It’s time to shift the balance and shift resources from speaking on your own behalf as a brand to finding trusted figures that can recommend your brand and speak on your behalf in a trusted way. If you are going to do this well, you need to think about who is going to be best to speak on your behalf, how you are going to get them to do so and be more articulate about your brand, and where that influence is going to take hold such that it is beneficial to your brand. WHAT I LOVE MOST… talking to an innovator who has been involved with so many major industry transitions. Now he’s driving the conversation around Influencer marketing, and he feels that this is the next great frontier.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. In this LinkedIn Live, I had the wonderful honor of welcoming my dear friend, Seth Godin, who I met in 2001 through his book Purple Cow, which is one of my all-time favorite books. Along the way, Seth has always been a great supporter of me and my career. Today, I’m eager to discuss Seth’s latest book, This Is Strategy: Make Better Plans. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone who wants a fresh perspective on leadership and strategy. TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE…strategy isn’t a lofty document or annual exercise. It’s a compass guiding every decision you make. Seth challenges the conventional idea of strategy as static and instead frames it as a dynamic, iterative process of becoming. He shares nuggets of wisdom from his new book, which he says is a love letter for the people he cares about. KEY TAKEAWAYS… Fear is often the thing that holds people back from making bold decisions. False proxies, like easy-to-measure but irrelevant metrics, can misguide your focus. The best leaders inspire action by focusing on the “why” behind their strategies. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Seth’s thoughts on practical empathy. He says it’s easy to become attached to something because you’ve worked hard on it. Practical empathy is understanding your audience and imagining what they need, even if that means reinventing your offerings. It’s a call to lead with both courage and care.
