About Deb Coviello

I see you. I see you staring out the window wondering how you are going to meet this challenge. Take a deep breath, and consider the big picture. CLARITY AMIDST CHAOS HELPS US AVERT CRISIS. “Chasing Results.” Sounds stressful, right? It is! The State of Chaos within your organization often has a lot to do with misalignment of priorities: are you pursuing short term results or long term peace of mind? Should we chat? https://go.oncehub.com/DropInCEOIntroduction Kind words from a client:“Deb is the quintessential CEO Whisperer. More than a f/COO, Deb has been a rock which I can lean on and confide in.”Karla Jo Helms. Chief Evangelist & Anti-PR StrategistLIFT, LIGHT, LEADI wrote “The CEO’s Compass: Your Guide to Get Back on Track” to lift up CEO\'s by exploring their Hero’s Journey through the unknown, guiding them to their own Peace of Mind. The journey continues with my follow-up, “The NEW CEO Playbook: Stop Chasing Results and Start Pursuing Peace of Mind,” which addresses the mindset, behaviors and changes needed for any leader seeking satisfaction in their journey. This volume is both for the C-Suiter ensuring their legacy by establishing a “Lift, Light, Lead” environment - and for the rising leader pursuing their seat at the table.Nearly five years into my Top 1.5% Apple podcast “The Drop In CEO,” I love sitting down with CEOs and industry leaders who are doing the work of transforming their businesses from the inside out. Each one of our 441 episodes and counting (yay!) offers insights on how to be an inspirational leader, take control of your career, and build a strong foundation of purpose. LOWERING THE TEMPERATURE AND ELEVATING CONVERSATIONS WITH EMPATHY AND PATIENCEOften, the best icebreaker is deep listening. Communicating and reframing the problem comes naturally after that, making it possible to create calm amidst chaos or crisis. That’s what I try to do as The Drop In CEO™.“KICKED OUT OF THE NEST”I use this phrase a lot, usually referring to the end of my “corporate phase,” and it was an awakening that plays a huge role in guiding C-Suite leaders as well as those wanting a seat at the table. On a deeper level, it harkens back to my younger years, and a purposeful journey to move past a State of Chaos at home and achieve Peace of Mind as a person and a professional. This is something I accomplished through a great deal of reflective work-Feel free to reach out: https://go.oncehub.com/DropInCEOIntroduction
