CEOs have a lot of leverage, yes, but how do I know that a particular CEO is making good decisions? If we look at a random CEO who is making XX,000,000/year, can you make an evidence based case that they are providing millions of dollars worth of value over a replacement level manager? I'm genuinely interested to know if there is a meaningful way to demonstrate this, because I have looked and haven't found one.

As a measurement over time at how well a business is performing this used to be the standard measurement but it seems to have been supplanted by other measures such as wealth inequity and twitter mob ragefests.
