Approaching The Role With A Hypothesis with Alex Cherucheril

In this episode, we chat with Alex Cherucheril, the Head of Business Operations and former CoS at Welcome Tech in Los Angeles. Alex discusses the evolving role of Chief of Staff, noting that over 50% of CoS roles may now come from internal promotions. He highlights the importance of adaptability, flexibility, and a strategic mindset for Chief of Staffs. Alex emphasizes the value of community among Chief of Staffs to combat loneliness and shares insights on the interview process, suggesting that candidates should approach the role with a specific learning hypothesis. David and Alex also discuss the significance of a strong relationship with the principal for job satisfaction. Alex has hosted two CoS events with us in LA.
