Most corporations have human-resources processes that involve discussions with your manager, performance evaluations, calibrations for performance and potential succession planning.
From Denise Morrison
If you want a CEO role, you have to prepare for it with a vengeance.
I think leadership is service and there is power in that giving: to help people, to inspire and motivate them to reach their fullest potential.
I am one of four girls and was inspired by my father to dream big. Some girls want to be doctors, but I wanted to run a company.
My parents had job jars because my father would say, 'Kids today have too much time, too much money and no responsibility. You're going to have no time, no money and a lot of responsibility.'
The thing that I learned early on is you really need to set goals in your life, both short-term and long-term, just like you do in business. Having that long-term goal will enable you to have a plan on how to achieve it.
I can cite numerous sponsors at different places in my career that made a huge difference for me just in terms of pulling me aside and giving me a tip or some coaching, or just watching what I was doing and not being afraid to tell me the truth about it.
The leader is the person who brings a little magic to the moment.
I do think the position I play is a powerful position.
I've been preparing to run a big company all my life.
