“The #CEOs of three of the nation's biggest retailers — #Walmart, #Target and #HomeDepot — privately warned him that his #tariff and #trade #policy could disrupt #supplychains, raise #prices and empty shelves, according to sources familiar with the meeting.” #Trump stocks.apple.com/AOTH9qp9SQZK...

"Not much can be done, in other words. But there is nothing to stop chief executives pressuring Congress to revoke executive authority over tariffs. They already sign off $4.5bn annually on US federal lobbying.

Short of that they could also urge lawmakers to tighten the criteria for imposing tariffs, as suggested by the Brookings Institution, introduce mandatory reporting or strengthen judicial oversight.

A dozen CEOs demanding these changes would fail. Hundreds or indeed thousands of bosses acting as one — representing consumers, employees and suppliers — would be impossible to ignore.

Chairs and boards have to step up. Decades of peace and economic stability have allowed technocrats, operational chiefs and finance-wallahs to rise to the top of business. Many suffer from imposter syndrome for good reason. They must be replaced with true leaders of vision and steel, less skilled at empathy workshops but ruthless when it comes to fighting for what is right — for shareholders and, frankly, all of us.

A supine response to tariffs suggests the current lot of CEOs should be fired — as someone in the White House might say."

Die Vorstandschefs der #Dax-Konzerne haben im vergangenen Jahr deutlich mehr verdient. Wie das „Handelsblatt" berichtet, erhielten die #CEOs insgesamt #Vergütungen von mehr als 230 Millionen Euro und damit rund 10 Prozent mehr als im Vorjahr.
Demgegenüber habe der Nettogewinn ihrer Konzerne nur bei rund einem Prozent
über dem Vorjahresergebnis gelegen.

When you read that, if you’re one of these people, how would you self-identify?

Is there a one-liner description that you’d read and think, “OMG that’s me! I feel seen!”?

Had a chat with a chief of staff this week and now my brain is puzzling all over again about my ideal clients. They’re definitely CEOs and chiefs of staff (and people in COS-like roles). But narrowing from job title is so challenging.

My COSs skew strategic — they do the ops and admin work but they thrive as thought partners and in strategy. They think of themselves as future COOs (maybe) and I see them as future CEOs (and when I say that…

Here's the thing, the reason #CEOs and execs in the tech industry think #AI can replace (the majority of) their workers, is because they assume that the jobs their workers do must be simpler than their job (because they get paid less, so obvs), and they know in their hearts that #LLMs can produce plausible sounding bullshit at least as well as they can.

Let's replace company #CEOs with #AI.
That would save *tremendous* amounts of money, and would be better for the environment as well!

According to Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, a Yale School of Management professor who runs regular invite-only salons for the country’s top CEOs, business leaders share a “universal revulsion” for Trump’s economic policies. But they’re not quite ready to speak out—yet.

The biggest problem of our Western is that we are doing the wrong thing more and more perfectly. All our difficulties are a consequence of this one problem.

We and destroy the of this , resources that do not belong to us, but we hardly share the material values that have arisen from them – we as the , but also we as entrepreneurs or within the West.

All these developments are the result of our constant efforts to do the wrong thing better.

Most killers and murderers never even raise a weapon.

Do you understand what I'm saying?"
shouted Moist. "You can't just go around killing people!"
"Why Not? You Do." The golem lowered his arm.
"What?" snapped Moist. "I do not! Who told you that?"
"I Worked It Out. You Have Killed Two Point Three Three Eight People," said the golem calmly.
"I have never laid a finger on anyone in my life, Mr Pump. I may be–– all the things you know I am, but I am not a killer! I have never so much as drawn a sword!"
"No, You Have Not. But You Have Stolen, Embezzled, Defrauded And Swindled Without Discrimination, Mr Lipvig. You Have Ruined Businesses And Destroyed Jobs. When Banks Fail, It Is Seldom Bankers Who Starve. Your Actions Have Taken Money From Those Who Had Little Enough To Begin With. In A Myriad Small Ways You Have Hastened The Deaths Of Many. You Do Not Know Them. You Did Not See Them Bleed. But You Snatched Bread From Their Mouths And Tore Clothes From Their Backs. For Sport, Mr Lipvig. For Sport. For The Joy Of The Game.

#Cybersecurity is no longer just an IT issue, it’s a business risk that #CEOs and #Boards must own. As regulatory pressure mounts and cyber threats grow more disruptive, Boards must evolve their oversight strategies to integrate cybersecurity into core business decisions, or risk failing in their fiduciary duties.

In my latest article I discuss how the Board and CEO can establish a framework for the inclusion of cyber risks into business planning. This article is a complement to a previous article discussing how CISOs must adapt as they communicate with CEOs and Boards, providing them valuable business information, without the technical jargon, and in ways that can be easily incorporated by senior leadership as part of their organizational business decisions.
