So you’ve landed that coveted spot as CEO of your company. Now what?

That’s what these four CEOs asked themselves when they reached the top of the corporate ladder and were handed the (perhaps virtual) keys to their corner office. During a panel at last month’s Women in Retail | On the Road New York event, they discussed what surprises were in store for them at this pivotal moment — including the realization that there was, in fact, not a “Here’s How to Be a CEO” manual sitting on top of their desk. In this video, you’ll hear from:

  • Nurtac Afridi, CEO, Godiva
  • Jamie Cygielman, President, American Girl
  • Gabby Hirata, President, Diane von Furstenberg
  • Amy Shecter, CEO, Ever/Body

Moderated by Cindy Solomon, the founder, president and CEO of Courageous Leadership Institute, this panel of C-suite retail leaders is available on-demand to Women in Retail Leadership Circle members and can be watched in its entirety here. Not a member? Apply today!
