Did
you know that most successful CEOs say their highest and
best learning has come from making (and surviving) mistakes?
Would
you be surprised to learn that successful CEOs are unanimous
in the belief that there is no 'theory' to being a CEO, but
that it is an experiential journey, leaned by doing, on one’s
feet in the ebb and flow of the competitive maelstrom?

Sutton maintains a limited and exclusive CEO Advisory practice.
Reflecting on his own career and the experiences of others,
Walt has learned that the fastest (and safest) way up the
learning curve is to learn as much about what lies ahead
as possible. The slowest way up the learning curve is to
make all of the mistakes, one after another, and hope for
survival.
