CEO of Adare Pharma, Tom Sellig, Articulating Core Values During a High-Stakes Interview
Imperfect Leaders - A podcast by Jeffrey Cohn, Podcast Host
Categories:
Tom Sellig is this week's podcast guest - and the CEO of Adare, an amazing pharmaceutical technology company owned by top private equity investors, Thomas H. Lee and Frazier Healthcare. Tom was kind enough to let me sprinkle in a few questions that I often use during actual CEO interviews when Boards ask me to help them assess top prospects. Rising star leaders can listen and learn how authentic CEOs - like Tom - answer these questions in a clear and concise way. The truth is CEOs interview for jobs, just like the rest of us. But understandably, their interview process is quite a bit more rigorous. They go through an intense, multi-faceted assessment process that focuses on leadership potential, culture fit, and the so called ‘intangibles’ that company's crave. It’s never too early to start thinking about these questions and learning how to tell your story - the good, the bad, and even the ugly - in an honest way that clearly demonstrates your leadership style, strengths and development needs. After all, there’s no such thing as a perfect leader. Click on www.imperfectleaders.com for free weekly episodes delivered to your inbox and the opportunity to join live discussions with top leaders.
