what are some roles and responsibilities of a CEO?

Provide leadership. Act as an icon for the company and what it stands for. Drive the overall organization, by puting in place other managers that agree with the CEO's direction. \n\nI think it depends of course on the size and industry of the company. Some CEOs need to be high profile, external voices of the company, while most are internal champions driving the organization. \n\nThey are responsible to shareholders/stakeholder for equity performance and debt holders for debt. They are responsible to their customers, employees and society for products/services they provide and the impact it has on their community/world. \n\nAt least they should feel responsible in these ways. Many only care about making money for themselves first and last, and in between getting their shareholders a little something. They could care less about everything else, and that's what makes me despise most CEOs. Certainly they may lie to make you believe otherwise, but people today are smarter than that.

Chief Executive Officer

I've worked directly with CEO's of a number of firms and, in my personal opinion, an executive's compensation is not too exessive (obviously, there will be exceptions).\n\nA typical CEO (if my experience is typical) spends most of his waking hours "on the job."  Not only does he/she work at the office, but must attend social events, serve in various positions in community, entertain clients, travel, etc.  The CEO's that I worked with had very little family life and, even when they were with family, were frequently on the phone dealing with business matters.  This is on top of the added risks and responsibilities of the position as well as the increasing liability for things that happen within his business.  Most individuals are not willing to put out what it takes to be a CEO, even if they do have the business skills (I know I wasn't).  Therefore, I believe the compensation of most CEO's is fully appropriate.

Depends on the size of the company, but usually they handle the more abstract things like the "vision" and future of the company.  The COO is the one that handles the more day-to-day operations, while the CEO gives general direction and interacts with the board and the other top officers of a firm.

If you are just starting you don't really need a CEO.\n\nYou would just be wasting a 100,000 plus a year salary & he wouldn't have enough people to supervise.\n\nA CEO is much more than just another upper level manager who has been promoted due to standard of experience or performance. CEO's function as the main artery between the cooperate board members and the various levels of the organization itself. The CEO is often held solely responsible for the success or failure of a corporation. It is also the CEO's responsibility to maintain and implement the corporate objectives established by the board members.

There are CEO's that are paid well over $100,000,000 a year. Perhaps some that make much, much more.

The same way you get a job with any industry....pick the companies you want to work for, find out all the background info you can and formulate a proposal as to how you can aid them in fulfilling their goals. Then call up the CEO and pitch yourself. Do not call HR or apply like everyone else. Stand out.

The CEO of a large company is one of the premier jobs in any country. Most of the CEOs of large companies come from backgrounds in accounting or finance, but some come from other areas such as marketing or engineering. Academic study in these areas and general business are the most helpful. Typically, the Master of Business Administration (MBA) is the terminal degree in business. A graduate from the best schools does have advantages. Who you meet at business school is as important as the quality of course work.\n\nAcademic credentials are one aspect of the upper-level corporate life, but do not guarantee success. Other necessary skills include, but are not limited to, people skills, a strong work ethic, communication and leadership skills. Because the stakes are high, politics will always have a predominate role. Pursuit of this office takes a lifetime of continuous improvement and dedication. Best wishes for your future success!
