    Becoming a CEO is a high-stakes moment, whether it's your first, second, or third time in the seat. What you say and how you act in your early days as CEO sets the tone for how you'll be perceived for years to come. Yet, until now, few CEOs have shared their stories on what worked, what didn't, and what they wish they'd done differently. 
     
     
     
    In The New CEO, Dr. Ty Wiggins, an experienced leadership advisor specializing in CEO transitions, explains how to land well as a new CEO, accelerate your impact, and unlock the most affirming experience of your career. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on compelling storytelling and groundbreaking research of hundreds of CEOs around the world, the book offers a incisive guide on what to say and do as a new CEO, including how to define your priorities, build your team, fast-track critical changes, work with the board, and set (or reset) the organization's culture. You'll also learn why being a CEO is the toughest (and loneliest) job in business—and what to do about it; how to overcome the "First 100 Days" mindset and pressure for early wins to deliver sustainable, long-term success; and how to avoid getting trapped in the "CEO Bubble," as well as how to navigate (inevitable) challenges, knocks, and missteps.

    It's not a lack of motivation. It's a mismatch between your biology and your demands. 
    If you've ever hit a wall despite doing everything "right"... If you've mastered schedules and systems but still feel drained... If you're tired of optimizing your calendar while your body, brain, or relationships break down... There's a better way. 
    Inside this comprehensive guide, you'll discover:How to reclaim 10+ hours per week by eliminating friction and rethinking prioritiesThe scheduling blueprint that aligns your work blocks with your brain's natural performance rhythmsHow to optimize your sleep, movement, and nutrition to create sustainable daily energyWhy stress is not your enemy—and how to rewire your nervous system to turn pressure into performanceThe science of flow—and how to access deep work states on command, without relying on hacks or hypeHow to master recovery rituals that boost resilience and prevent burnout before it startsWhy mindset work often fails without a physiological foundation—and how to build true mental enduranceA proven system for automating excellence through environment design, accountability, and delegation
