267: Remastered – Becoming a CEO in Silicon Valley with Shellye Archambeau

Our continued search through our podcasting vault has led us to the next episode to remaster. Who was selected? None other than Shellye Archambeau.

As a master planner and strategist, Shellye knows how to create roadmaps to accomplish just about anything she sets her mind to. This is what led her to attend a top-ranked university, moving up the ranks at IBM, and ultimately becoming a CEO by the time she turned 40.

In this remastered episode, we use her book, Unapologetically Ambitious, to anchor our conversation. Shellye shares her journey in becoming one of the first black women to lead a high-tech Silicon Valley company. Specifically, she reveals how she builds and empowers teams to build business infrastructure to support rapid, sustainable growth.

Along the way, she also shares her predictions for remote working, how to delegate effectively, and why falling in love with your market is essential for scaling your business.

Discover why she says you deserve to be ambitious and to do so unapologetically.

Growth is Not a Bad Thing

But too much growth too fast presents a set of challenges often overlooked when discussing small businesses. The emphasis tends to center on the marketing and promotion necessary to grow your business, and not on the business infrastructure needed to scale your business in a sustainable manner. These back-office operations can make or break your business, especially when you have more demand than your business is currently capable of supplying.

What’s worse is that when you try to look for cures for these back-office blues, you might find that the resources either are reserved for manufacturing and enterprise-level companies or are prohibitively expensive.

You don’t have to grow alone! We can do this. Together.

Subscribe today and get access to the tips, processes, and resources that can revolutionize the way your small business operates!

Your partner in growth

Alicia’s podcast is such a necessary resource for business owners looking to grow and scale. Workflows and operations are easily pushed to the back burner when you have a massive vision and mission in mind; however, you’ll have a very difficult time achieving that vision and mission without these necessary pieces. Tune in for great tips and strategies along your journey!
