Well if they want to truly replicate the mindset of a c-suite suit they need to make priority number one doing anything and everything to maximize this year's bonus while continuing to network relentlessly instead of doing anything work related so that they have another ship to jump to and capsize once this one goes under.
It will never cease to amaze me that honestly this seems like the entire CEO's resume. It is just go to from one to the next to the next, making just adsorbent amounts of money, to just randomly resign at some point and go to the next place for even more money. Then companies spend more and more and more to get these people to show up and jump ship again.
Always blaming the "market" for all the bad times, and praising the "hard work" of the executives for good times. Firing all the people that actually DID the work.
Workers never have a chance to gain ground because the CEO is making 100 employees worth of money to sit in their high tower and quit later.
CEOs are fall-guys - think of them like figureheads.
