If you don't think protecting the investors money is not job one for any CEO, then you should never become a CEO or investor.
And no good CEO solely gets a company ready to IPO unless they are committing fraud. Getting ready to go public almost always (outside of super bubbles) means establishing your business model works. And usually that means generating profits, and generating profits means you are never forced to go public, you get to go only when it's most advantageous for the company.
Going public isn't an end-goal, it's a hugely expensive and distracting operation than only provides a single thing of value, slightly greater liquidity for your investors.
