- ulfw 2y agoNobody needs them. That's a ridiculous statement. Everyone is replaceable.
- surement 2y agothe people with the highest compensation packages are by definition the least replaceable
- esseph 2y agoThat's not exactly true. High compensation can be offset by the risk a position entails. Example: CISOs are feeling a lot of pressure these days
- schmookeeg 2y agoHave you never been in a committee meeting? The "E" in CEO is to listen to a room full of noncommittal, hedging, sycophantic people and then chart a course based on their weak signals. Arguably the CEO needs all of the talent of a dart thrower; but they're the one that takes the stand, or fall, of the decisions made. I agree they're replaceable. I don't agree that they're not needed. :)
- archagon 2y agoCEOs love taking full responsibility for their decisions, the extent of which is apparently uttering the words “full responsibility.”
