CEO Surprises
Seven Surprises for new CEOs

You can't run the company (no time! Too many stakeholders to deal
with)

Giving orders is costly (it demoralizes, creates resentment, stifles
creativity/ adaptability/flexibility and speed)
•
It's hard to know what's really going on
•
You are always sending a message
•
You are not the boss (the board is)
•
Pleasing shareholders is not the goal (focus on long-term value
creation)
•
You are still only human

LEADERSHIP CHARACTERISTICS
Differences in
competence and action
Companies are increasingly
placing value on substantive
work experience; looking
beyond skin color, gender,
and even the items on a
resume.
Evidence of being a strategic

not only to develop a plan, but
also empower the
organization to realize the
vision behind it, are important
indicators of leadership
potential

Personality differences
A large amount of research has
been done on personality or the
psychological determinants of
strategic leadership focusing
specifically on:
•
Locus of control
•
Need for achievement
•
(In)tolerance for risk or
ambiguity (my score 35/112)
–
CEO 44-48 MBA 55-60
•
Charisma and emotional
intelligence
Personality characteristics may
be important;
defining and
isolating leadership abilities is
difficult
(similar argument in
entrepreneurship)
Background and
demographic differences
Background refers to factors
such as:
•
Work experience
•
Education (law, acct, fin)
Demographic refers to factors
such as:
•
Gender
•
Nationality
•
Race
•
Religion

Network ties
•
Traditional: WASP male Ivy
leaguer
