Manage episode 480036752 series 2833975
Jim Schleckser is a veteran entrepreneur and leadership strategist with decades of experience guiding mid-market company CEOs through critical growth phases. Drawing on lessons from his own career, he emphasizes the importance of identifying and resolving organizational constraints—the core bottlenecks that prevent progress. Schleckser teaches that effective CEOs focus not on doing more, but on doing what truly matters: leveraging high-impact activities, fostering talent, and making strategic, data-driven decisions that ripple out to positively affect employees, customers, and communities.
At the heart of Schleckser’s work is The CEO Project, a peer advisory organization he founded to support CEOs of $20M–$220M companies. Unlike general networking groups, The CEO Project offers curated, industry-diverse peer cohorts where leaders can openly share challenges and gain breakthrough insights from fellow executives. Its methodology draws on the Theory of Constraints and deep experience from former CEOs acting as advisors, creating a powerful structure for diagnosing barriers, accelerating growth, and building resilience in both leadership and business operations.
The CEO Project has helped transform numerous businesses, with client success stories including revenue and profit growth many times over. CEOs involved with the program benefit from actionable insights, confidential peer collaboration, and a structured process for solving their most pressing challenges. For leaders seeking to sharpen their strategy, expand their impact, and lead with clarity, Jim Schleckser’s proven approach offers a path forward. Learn more at The CEO Project.
