What nobody tells you about scaling a growing business
Growth looks like success from the outside, but inside the business it often means changing the way almost everything works.
In this episode of CEO: Behind the Scenes, Charlie Maas, Co-Founder and CEO of Papa Salt Coastal Gin, shares how scaling has forced him to rethink operations, marketing and decision-making. Maas explores the discipline of saying no and explains small businesses can compete through speed, consistency and alignment.
It’s a candid look at the less visible side of growth – the trade-offs, difficult decisions and constant recalibration.

Why the best engineering decisions happen before design begins
Before drawings take shape or construction begins, some of the most important engineering work is already happening.
In this episode of CEO: Behind the Scenes, Kevin Berry, Managing Director of TTW, explores why understanding the problem comes before designing the solution – and how early questions around function, longevity and client priorities can fundamentally change a project’s direction.
Berry also reflects on leadership, long-term client relationships and the growing role of AI in engineering, making the case that technical capability matters most when paired with judgment, curiosity and strong human skills.
Listen for a practical look at how better questions shape projects long before the final design is settled.

Why human connection matters more in an AI-driven world
As AI reshapes how we work, decide and communicate, the qualities that remain distinctly human may become more valuable – not less.

He shares his perspective on why gathering in person still matters and how leaders can create more space for reflection and better decision-making.
Drawing on his own experience of profound personal loss, Everingham also reflects on resilience, community and making each interaction count.
Tune in for a timely conversation on what technology can’t replace – and how leaders can keep humanity at the center as everything else accelerates.
