In this episode of the Savage Executive Podcast, host Steve Smith discusses the essential mindset shift that differentiates managers from impactful leaders. The key takeaway is that you don't need a title to lead; you need a strategic mindset. Steve shares personal anecdotes and a practical framework—the three layers of the CEO mindset: zoom out, build systems, and multiply impact. Tune in to learn how to think like a CEO, empower your team, and progressively increase your influence.
