    We know how challenging it is to run our own company, reach targets and achieve the goals. The founders come up with unique ideas for their companies. But running the company, factorizing the capital, and optimizing resources require a different set of skills. That is where CEOs come to the rescue. They need to soak up the founder's ideas, rules, and regulations and then execute and operate the company accordingly. It is challenging to set their vision for the company and follow the founders' vision and culture. It is tough working towards our dream, but the struggle increases on a whole other level when working for someone else's dream.

    By interviewing top CEOs, we gathered a few secrets about helping reach the company to their optimum potential. Here is a sneak peek into some of those secrets.

    • Understand the past and present situations. 

    It is very crucial to primarily analyze the available resources at hand before starting any operations. The CEO should research the past operations undertaken by the company. What decisions worked the best while what steps undertaken failed in the long run. This offers a clear picture for the CEO to take well-informed steps in the future and not repeat past mistakes. CEO also requires to analyze the current standing of the company. This analysis gives information about the company's current market share and makes a calculated forecast about the future. 

    •  Define your expectations and resources. 

    The main issue with the hired gun CEO that needs to be considered is that their vision aligns with its vision. This is paramount as the CEO's steps will directly affect all the aspects of the company. Even though the hired gun CEOs make all the decisions, they too are an employee working under the CEO. They are accountable for the significant decisions they make for the company.

    •  Focus on execution. 

    Immaculate execution is the fundamental requirement of any hired gun CEO. Apart from running its daily chores, the CEOs should have long-term and short-term goals to achieve the company's vision. They can use SMART goals and set up shorter milestones for the employees to reach the target easily. Their only focus should be on helping the company reach its goals at the earliest.

    In the end, we would like to summarize the secrets in a few takeaways:

    1. Make sure there's a fit. If you can't enhance its current culture, then the founder will be looking for a new CEO.
    2. Set realistic targets. Get on the same page with the founder, or you'll be setting each other up for disappointment.
    3. Own the plan. You and your leadership team must design and manage the processes to realize the owner's vision.
