CEOzine, our CEO Interview Series, features real CEO’s facing common challenges. They have overcome setbacks and achieved improved results by understanding and building their organization’s GrowthDNA. Every company has DNA– a combination of history, culture, and capabilities. The only question is whether it includes the four strands (make this a link to an explanation of the four strands—the text part of the Approach page at the bottom) needed for growth-mindedness and sustainable growth. These CEO’s stories illustrate the value of GrowthDNA to the bottom line. We encourage you to forward this to others who you believe would benefit from reading it, as well as suggest CEOs whom you would like to see featured. Let us know what you think!
