Jimmy AllenHOST
And her first question to CEOs, well, it's old but gold, but she asked, what is it that only you can do?

Ann WrightGUEST
It's an age old question, but the what can only you do is increasingly important because People can get seduced about, now I'm CEO, I need to, and a lot of what they think they need to do isn't exactly what they need to do.

Ann WrightGUEST
If they came up within the organisation, the most important role is the person who's replacing them.

Ann WrightGUEST
And I have people do the exercise of, okay, if these are the three most important things you said you wanted to do, where is the time in your calendar for doing that?

Jimmy AllenHOST
You're saying it's almost, it's increasingly important that they ask the question, what can only you uniquely do? Why is it increasingly important? I'm just curious.

Ann WrightGUEST
Because everybody will want them, right? When you've come up through the ranks, all the people who think they're your friend or had a previous relationship with you, just want a cup of coffee or want to drop in.
