Nothing. Even the most boot licking sycophants point out most of a CEO’s day is just pointless meetings that don’t need to happen. Occasionally a crisis comes up and a CEO will have to do something, or the odd CEO will give themselves actual duties, but that’s not a day to day thing.
As much as I want to agree with you, and for as much cynicism and general dislike I have towards manager-types… I find it hard to believe these freaks do nothing all day.
I just find it difficult to see that shareholders and investors would allow for these massive salaries for roles that do nothing.
And to be clear – I want to agree. I feel like you’re right. I definitely assume CEOs do nothing. But I just don’t think that can really be the case!
Which is why I asked, I suppose; I want to know whether I’m right in assuming that these guys are, in fact, as useless as they seem.
