#179 CEO Summit Part 1 Interview 2 - Bernie Brookes AM - Be Prepared to Step Out of Your Lane

Brave Feminine Leadership

Welcome to Interview two in the 6-part CEO Series Visionary Voices where I explore the CEO Mindset and path to success. What is the journey to growing a CEO Mindset? Just ask Bernie Brookes AM to share his career journey and you get a great roadmap. Bernie shares his inspiring story and the mindset needed to succeed in senior roles. From his humble beginnings as a 10-pound pom to leading large companies, Bernie emphasizes the importance of being relatable, stepping out of your lane, and embracing feedback (ouch!). His anecdotes from working in Africa highlight the need to adapt communication styles, even if it means dancing! Bernie’s reflections on bias and his advice to new CEOs, like leaving time for thinking and making the coffee, are invaluable. Now, as a mentor to today’s and future CEOs, Bernie’s humble, servant leadership continues to inspire.
