If someone can work as a CEO for more than one company at the same time….
- Scoundreller 4y agoOr sit on the boards of multiple large public corporations.
- johnmacintyre 4y agoI've never sat on the board of a company. But I'd imagine its a lot less demanding than a full time job.
- quickthrower2 4y agoIt is usually a part time job. You would be expected to take other jobs.
- ineedasername 4y agoBut it's not uncommon to sit on multiple boards at the same time that a person is the CEO in their full time job. It can all start to add up a bit. Are they working extra hours? Does the CEO position not require a full 40 of their time? I suspect there are many in both categories.
- johnmacintyre 4y agoIf you're talking about Elon Musk, its not really the same thing since he owns the companies he's CEO of.
- HDThoreaun 4y agoMusk does not own tesla
- johnmacintyre 4y agoMy mistake. He does hold enormous influence though, I would think.
- not2b 4y agoHe also owns less than half of SpaceX. But SpaceX's management is probably just fine with him going off and focusing on Twitter, they can do fine without him playing an active role.
- hinkley 4y agoThey probably do better when he's not around. Which reminds me, I've been meaning to keep tabs on his former head of engineering at SpaceX. That guy is probably the one you should be watching, not Musk.
- mym1990 4y agoThe difference is that it is usually fully transparent what the CEO is committed to.
- tjpnz 4y agoCEOs have a fiduciary responsibility to the owners whereas rank and file employees don't.
