This is episode #241 of The Limitless Podcast with Nick Jonsson and we are pleased to have with us Charley Johnson, Chief Consciousness Officer.
In this enlightening and thought-provoking conversation, Charley introduces us to a new frontier in leadership: the Chief Consciousness Officer—a role dedicated to nurturing self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and deep human connection within organizations.
As the world of business evolves, the old models of leadership—based solely on productivity, control, and results—are starting to show their cracks. Charley explains how bringing consciousness into the boardroom isn’t just good for people, it’s essential for long-term impact, innovation, and sustainability.
Together, Nick and Charley explore:
The origin and responsibilities of a Chief Consciousness Officer
Why consciousness is the next competitive edge in leadership
The inner work required to lead with presence, empathy, and authenticity
How conscious leadership reshapes culture, decision-making, and performance
What companies can do today to become more human-centered, purpose-driven, and future-ready
This episode is a must-listen for executives, founders, HR leaders, and culture shapers who are ready to move beyond "business as usual" and toward something more mindful, connected, and meaningful.
