In this episode of CEO Sessions, we’re sitting down with Charlotte Casebourne Stock, a seasoned CEO now leading her third company. We take a look into her reflections on leadership, exploring what it truly means to be a CEO.

Charlotte challenges the traditional "hero CEO" narrative, advocating for a leadership style centered on enabling teams and stepping away from ego-driven decision-making.

We discuss the importance of adaptability in a rapidly changing world, the value of setting guiding principles, and how to build resilience within a company. Charlotte also shares insights from her journey with Theolytics, highlighting the need for transparency, curiosity, and the courage to course-correct when needed.

As Charlotte prepares for her next venture, she reflects on integrating work and life in a more easily sustainable way, moving away from the myth of work-life balance, and pushing teams to achieve more than they think possible.
