CEO Quotes A-Z by Author |
I think the most important CEO task is defining
the course that the business will take over
the next five or so years. You have to have
the ability to see what the business environment
might be like a long way out, not just over
the coming months. You need to be able to
both set a broad direction, and also to
take particular decisions along the way
that make that broad direction unfold correctly.

Some of the best business and nonprofit
CEOs I've worked with over a sixty-five-year
consulting career were not stereotypical
leaders. They were all over the map in terms
of their personalities, attitudes, values,
strengths, and weaknesses.

I'm going to miss Blockbuster. I'm gonna
miss being CEO and all that stuff. We had
an atmosphere where everybody was happy.
When people make money, they're happy.

The most important thing I've learned since
becoming CEO is context. It's how your company
fits in with the world and how you respond
to it.

I’m out talking about this company
(General Electric) seven days a week, 24
hours a day, with nothing to hide. We’re
a 130-year-old company that has a great
record of high-quality leadership and a
culture of integrity.

I think the hardest thing about my job is
the way Whole Foods Market views itself
philosophically is that we are a business
dedicated to meeting all the various stakeholders
of the company's best interests. And by
stakeholders we mean customers, team members,
stockholders, community, and the environment.
Sometimes what is in the best interest of
one stakeholder may not be in the best interest
of another stakeholder, and as the CEO,
I have to balance the various interests
of the different constituencies and stakeholders
to create win, win, win scenarios, and that
can sometimes be very difficult to do. Everybody
wants something from the CEO.

Synergies are something that the CEO basically
has to force to happen, because organizations
are, generally, like bodies in motion that
tend to stay in motion. It's very hard to
get big organizations to change. And it
takes really a very powerful mandate to
force things to happen.
John

My main job was developing talent. I was
a gardener providing water and other nourishment
to our top 750 people. Of course, I had
to pull out some weeds, too.
