Right so in other words CEOs have responsibility that they need to live up to.
They can’t just pass all their responsibility onto shareholders and absolve themselves of duty. They can’t hide behind the covers and point blame.
Yes, exactly.
I don't think I said anything provocative or not common knowledge.
The CEOs responsibilities are specified by shareholders - more exactly via bylaws, general meetings, usually annual, and supervisory board supervision, usually monthly or quarterly.
Eg: If a CEO decides on their own they they will refuse to pay any cancer treatments that can get him removed. Or even if they decide to cover all cancer treatments. The latter being my point more exactly bcs that would lower profits ofc. CEOs have to justify their decisions and affects on company statements much like regular employees, but on a company level. CEOs get fired for the stupidest reasons, but in any case it's usually easier to just pay them out so there are no legal processings (that is bad especially in publicly traded companies).
I don't understand why would they
Thats the whole job they got from and agreed to do (passing it back just means quitting, which they can do). "Their boss" tells them what to do.
(If you get the job to operate the ice cream machine then thats your "responsibility", you can't put it back on your boss unless by quitting, which means it's nobodies responsibility until the next worker is assigned.)
