Not at all.

The CEO in question publicly declared his own job would be forfeit within a year if he didn't meet goals that were in the recent past history of the company, absolutely impossible.

He met and exceeded those goals.

The IC isn't powerless with good management.

What company was it, who was the CEO, and what's one specific thing one of the departments did?

Or are you just copy/pasting LinkedIn drivel?

    Nissan, Ghosn, and I can't answer the third easily without delving back into it, but if I think of an answer, I'll edit this reply.

      Never heard of Ghosn before - but you mean this guy? https://www.dmarge.com/cars/nissan-bankruptcy-ceo-carlos-gho...

      The guy who's a wanted fugitive in Japan and fled to Lebanon by shipping himself in a piano box?

        Power and money got to his head, hard, but he used to be a really good manager, probably the best Michelin ever had, before he took the job at Renault (then Nissan). Not surprised to hear he was very successful there, as he had a really good reputation before his divorce (and this is baseless gossip, but I will still say I doubt any of his wrongdoings were before 2012. Too much power and no one to keep his ego checked down).

    Ok, you got me. I laughed at this one. I never tire of reading the funniest LinkedIn drivel posted to meme sites or Twitter/X. This one is legendary funny to me: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/astuckey_nobody-linkedin-infl...
