Making of a CEO
December 29, 2008
In “Defining the Duties of the American CEO”, belived to be his last article, Peter F. Drucker says, “The CEO is an American invention - de-signed first by Alexander Hamilton in the Constitution in the earliest years of the Republic, and then transfered to the private sector in the form of Hamilton’s own Bank of New York and of the Second Bank of the United States in Philadelphia. There is no real counterpart to the CEO in the management and organization of any other country. The German ‘Sprecher des Vorstands,’ the French ‘Administrateur Delegue,’ the British ‘Chairman’, or the Japanese ‘President’ are all quite different in their powers and the limitations thereon”.
Whatever may be the nomenclature, every CEO is hired to deliver results-be it for a company, an NGO, a government, or a project. “CEOs have the ultimate responsibility for the work of everybody else in their institution. But they also have work of their own. In any organization, regardlesss of its mission, the CEO is the link between the Inside, i.e. the organization, and the Outside - society, the economy, technology, markets, customers, the media and public option. Inside, there are only costs. Results are only on the outside,” observed the legendary management guru.
