    I’ve heard much the same thing from the world of biz. People think the CEO is the ultimate dictator in the corpo world, but you don’t get to that position without being useful to the upper classes and financial automations. The moment you start going out of sync with those forces is the moment you will feel you “power” rapidly decreasing.

    It’s only the power to enunciate the will of capital. Never to act against it.

      Well it’s very clear in the business world. the CEO (Chief Executive Officer) is there to execute the will of the board of directors and to a lesser extent, the shareholders.

      To be a Chief Executive Officer you must have an executive staff (Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Marketing Officer, etc)

      Many people in small business like to call themselves a ceo when in reality they are the director of the company. A director can do wherever they want.
