CEO is the highest executive position in the company. He or she has general obligations for planning, organizing, creating, implementing, and integrating the overall strategy of the organization [2]. Moreover, this means that it depends on his work whether the company will fall apart, or will flourish in the future.
Obligations of the CEO
An article written by Lafley A.G. the intertwining with the thoughts of Peter Drucker is visible [3]. The main idea behind their general conclusions is the uniqueness of the CEO's work. The essential message that they wanted to convey to the world was that only the CEO can extract the necessary information from the outside world in such a way that this data would benefit the internal environment of the organization. Also, only a professional CEO can, in times of crisis, pandemic, and other instabilities in the market, find new opportunities in the market, and not threats. In addition, the CEO has the following obligations [4]:
- to ensure the sustainability, sales and profits of the company;
- to provide the growth of profit for shareholders;
- to define clear goals and vision of the organization;
- to inform the company's management about all-round competition (both internal and external competition);
