Have you ever worked at a large company? The leadership does jack shit there. A CEO left for a different gig at one place I worked at, and it took a year to replace him. Nothing at all visibly changed during that time. All companies are run by the workers, and they're what holds the company together.

That's basically the story. We had no CEO for over a year, a large org around 400 people or so. People just kept doing their work, and things kept running along.

Amusingly, the most disruptive part was actually the new CEO coming on board, because naturally he had to show that he had his own ideas. So he decided to change a bunch of processes just for the sake of it.
