This person has clearly never been CEO. There's like a hundred thousand CEOs in the US. Adam Neuman doesn't make a trend.

  Have you been a CEO? Edit: come on guys, you're going to criticize the author for not having been a CEO? If you haven't been one either, what's the basis for the criticism? It makes no logical sense. Edit 2: Regardless of whether the author is right or wrong, "You can't judge because you were never a CEO" is a silly comment to make. Maybe, the author is wrong, but in any case it's not because he's never been a CEO. Almost nobody has been a CEO. Does that mean they are immune from criticism by the rest of us? I just really felt the need to point out the sloppy thinking there. I'm clearly right about this. It seems as though pointing out obvious logical mistakes is now justification for downvotes and taking personal offence?

    I guess the point is it's painting with a wide brush. Not every company needs a charlatan sociopath at the head. The CEO of a lawn care service is probably living a pretty mundane life.

      OK but I was clearly responding to the comment "The author has never been a CEO." The reasoning is faulty regardless of whether the conclusion is correct.

    Yes. And yes "You can't judge because you were never a CEO" is a silly comment to make. Take my point as a shorthand for "this person has neither experienced what that job is or bothered learning what it is".
