Ive seen firsthand how a CEOs presence on social media changes how people view a company. Customers, employees, and potential hires want to know whos steering the ship. When I show up online and share my perspective, the conversations become more genuine, and trust starts to build. Its not about self-promotion its about showing the real person behind the title.
