C level people don’t do much?
So is it just me or does it seem like my C level people don’t do much besides the COO? I’ll have delegate every function turned on but the CPO often doesn’t develop new products or approve existing projects that are completed, they don’t develop new breeds of coffee beans, and they keep buying market blends that are way more costly than in-house blends. Like, we literally have a million plus pounds of my blend that’s $5 a pound but you’re paying $20 a pound for a less balanced blend from Geisha? Why?
The CTO doesn’t initiate app updates or staff the department. The CMO often isn’t adjusting marketing budgets to increase brand awareness or decrease unnecessary spending. The CFO doesn’t respond to offers on real estate for sale or do anything to respond to financial losses. Like what are these people here for? If I’m doing everything myself what’s the point? When one of them resigns the only one I notice is the COO because I’m getting a zillion notifications about store managers resigning. I always hire people with the highest expertise vs leadership and loyalty.
