A beleaguered CEO

Imagine you're the CEO of a 50+ year old company. Before you took over the company, it wasn't doing too well. After you took over, there were some rough times but you made things right and things started looking good. You even started breaking new ground. You encouraged people and mentored them, even some people that nobody backed. You did things that no other CEO did. You became the most successful CEO of the company. Sure, you made some mistakes but who doesn't.

Then, you lost your magic touch, for a while. Not that long though. Your performance dipped. And, suddenly, all the shareholders are now crying for your head.

You raised the standards and now you're a victim of your own success. You realise that you're only as good as your last few months.

Remember that Saurav.
