Well. Just an idea. I guess, the whole point of the conventional one-man show of a strong-man CEO who-does-it-all at the top of a company is just a concept from the 19th century and... well, outdated?

Industries, business models, firm routines, technologies and organisations are evolving, so is the role of CEO. Performance measurements need to change accordingly, and so does the adequate compensation. At least for my gut-feeling, the latter should be lower, especially compared to the guys in the company that are really pushing firm competitiveness and profits, i.e. sales or R&D etc.

Hi Joachim, very interesting. Would you have a link to the Decressin study please ? Tried to look for it but no luck.
