What's up guys and welcome back to build and today I want to go into deep the five key responsibilities of a CEO.

I want to cut through the noise and I want to cut through the BS of what people think it takes to run a company and what you're supposed to do.

And I really wanted to distill it down into the five things that I actually consider my

nobody else will. Nobody. Okay. And if you don't set the vision,

your team is going to guess what it is. If you don't build leaders, you're stuck making every

drive culture, mediocrity creeps in. And if you don't remove the bottlenecks, the business is

going to slow down. And so as acks, the business is going to slow down.

And so as a CEO, your job is not to do more. It's to focus on the things that actually drive the business forward. You don't get paid to be busy, okay? You get paid to create clarity,
