I help CEOs and executive teams find clarity when growth, complexity, and uncertainty threaten to overwhelm the organization. By aligning people, processes, culture, and strategy, I help leaders lead with confidence and create organizations that perform with purpose—not just pressure. I also see you. I see you staring out the window wondering how you are going to meet this challenge. Take a deep breath, and consider the big picture. CLARITY AMIDST CHAOS HELPS US AVERT CRISIS. “Chasing Results.” Sounds stressful, right? It is! The State of Chaos within your organization often has a lot to do with misalignment of priorities: are you pursuing short term results or long term peace of mind? Should we chat? https://go.oncehub.com/DropInCEOIntroduction Kind words from a client: “Deb is the quintessential CEO Whisperer. More than a f/COO, Deb has been a rock which I can lean on and confide in.” Karla Jo Helms. Chief Evangelist & Anti-PR Strategist LIFT, LIGHT, LEAD I wrote “The CEO’s Compass: Your Guide to Get Back on Track” to lift up CEO's by exploring their Hero’s Journey through the unknown, guiding them to their own Peace of Mind. The journey continues with my follow-up, “The NEW CEO Playbook: Stop Chasing Results and Start Pursuing Peace of Mind,” which addresses the mindset, behaviors and changes needed for any leader seeking satisfaction in their journey. This volume is both for the C-Suiter ensuring their legacy by establishing a “Lift, Light, Lead” environment - and for the rising leader pursuing their seat at the table. Nearly five years into my Top 1.5% Apple podcast “The Drop In CEO,” I love sitting down with CEOs and industry leaders who are doing the work of transforming their businesses from the inside out. Each one of our 441 episodes and counting (yay!) offers insights on how to be an inspirational leader, take control of your career, and build a strong foundation of purpose. LOWERING THE TEMPERATURE AND ELEVATING CONVERSATIONS WITH EMPATHY AND PATIENCE Often, the best icebreaker is deep listening. Communicating and reframing the problem comes naturally after that, making it possible to create calm amidst chaos or crisis. That’s what I try to do as The Drop In CEO™.
Leadership goes beyond the boardroom, enriching every facet of our lives. Shouldn’t problem-solving show up the same way in our businesses? I’m Deborah Coviello and I know that your primary goal will always be a resolution to a problem. As The Drop in CEO™, I bring 20+ years worth of experience and strategy in Quality and Operational Excellence roles to the table. I use that knowledge in addition to 15 years in the Flavors and Fragrance industry to identify, assess, and solve the issues that are preventing your business growth. To get to the root of a problem, you have to be willing to think differently about how to solve it. Working together, we utilize the talents that are already showing up in the people who run your business and facilitate solutions that are innovative, sustainable, and elevate your business as a whole. People are the heart of your business. In addition to solving immediate problems, I’m committed to facilitating growth within your leadership team, empowering them to create their own systems for problem identification and solutions. When you think about your business as it stands today, are you facing a problem that leaves you overwhelmed? Let’s have a conversation about what the journey to “Peace of Mind” looks like for you.

“CHASING RESULTS” Sounds stressful, right? It is! The State of Chaos within your organization often has a lot to do with misalignment of priorities: are you pursuing short term results or long term peace of mind? Meeting a deadline elicits high-fives around the room, but is your infrastructure sustainable? The NEW CEO Playbook is for the C-Suite Leader who has the awareness that something has changed and then need to do something different to get a different result.
