Research and present a profile of the CEO for a firm. Building on the reading and discussions, the following should be discussed:
• Is the CEO being successful at his/her job? Is there synergy or dissonance between the business strategy and corporate design structure?
- Is the company perceived as being "nimble" and what supports your answer?
- Is the CEO viewed as a visionary, custodian, change agent, or something else?
• Who would that CEO say is his/her primary customer base? Would that customer base feel the corporate structure supports its needs?
- How is that corporate structure set up to support the customer?
- Can you connect share price value (if a for-profit company) with CEO compensation?
- If non-profit or not-for-profit, what metric is used to measure CEO performance (if known)?
• How is the CEO compensated, and do you think that compensation is justified; why?
