CEO has the greatest influence over the direction of the organization. If the position lacks leadership and skills, the direction of the organization suffers taking everyone working there with them. Top talent is expensive and always in demand.
A lot of CEOs are horrible at their jobs because they are morally and ethically bankrupt. Empathy is one of the most critical qualities for good leadership, but our current culture thinks being a tyrant is better because we have been brainwashed to believe it by rich narcissists.

I’m not convinced all CEO’s are morally corrupt or lack empathy. Successful companies seem to have talented executives and those executives demand high wages because of the results they achieve. The notion that they pillage their companies doesn’t seem to be reality in business.
