Performance, Expansion or Exit - Along with reviewing company performance metrics, identifying challenges, and implementing corrective measures when needed, a CEO may implement specific strategy such as acquisitions or an exit.
Founders and entrepreneurs often bring in a professional CEO to take over the leadership of their company when the business reaches a stage where specific expertise is needed to scale, pivot strategy, or leverage broader experience or networks.
