A Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, is essentially responsible for every decision that is made within a company. The job can be very demanding, but also very rewarding when the company succeeds because of decisions that were made at the top. Whether the head of a huge corporation or small business, the CEO nevertheless plays a major role in the ultimate success or failure of a company.

I call CEOs of small businesses Chief Everything Officer. They are responsible for pretty much everything in their business. However, their most important responsibility is to provide vision and strategic direction to the company, hire best employees and delegate appropriately. Only by doing this he will be able to focus on growing the business rather than getting bogged down by day-to-day duties of small business.

Hi Valentine,

I think the most important point here is the need for a key decision maker in every business regardless of size. This doesn't mean, of course, that input from others is ignored, but someone must be in charge of choosing the direction and strategy the company uses when moving forward. Thanks for sharing these important thoughts on leadership with the BizSugar community.

Hi Heather,

I agree with you because someone must surly be in charge who is able to demonstrate qualities of leadership and experience in order to move the company in a higher level.

Thanks for your comment :)
