Still not particularly useful if we are comparing new companies to old ones. I'm sure the brand new oil companies of 1875 had incredible revenue growth in the ±20 years after their founding, too. Does that mean that oil men make the best CEOs?
- replyifuagree 6y agoI mean, those oil men clearly had something going on that was relevant to what was tractionable at the time, and revenue growth can be an indicator of finding that traction in the market. As mentioned below, it can also be a sign of graft. Of course through the lens of history, considering climate change, the best CEO was the one who didn't unleash a huge pile of CO2!
