What makes a good CEO

[Ivan sntr]

Hi,

I'm currently in the process of starting a different business.

Now I know my strengths, which are in product, strategy and marketing.
My weakness is my lack in Project Management Skills, and I absolutely don't enjoy that part of it, multitasking & coordinating over 10 different areas of my business is not something I'm good at.
I'm more of a friend of doubling down on my strengths and hiring people that have their strengths in the areas I'm laking.
Now as I start a new business I'm afraid it's gonna be too much.

Do you guys think all great CEOs have great Project Management Skills? I kinda feel that way...

I'm doing alright. I'm doing close to 7 figures in profit so far this year, but I'm afraid I'm not the type of CEO to scale a business. I'm just not great at building systems.
