There always is. So the recent head honcho is moving back home and their boots will be (or are already) filled. It’s all very everyday from my perspective.

I guess we can all wish the departing CEO and their incumbent all the best; it may herald exciting new ventures - all we know is that whatever it is it won’t be to everyone’s taste … in any case evidence of any influence from a new CEO will take a long time to manifest at our end

agree fully. ‘a lot is happening’ is very much an empty vessel

I heard he’s the only one who knows how to CEO and now they won’t be able to do that stuff anymore, or something

Is it common for a CEO to leave after 2 years? Feel like it is quite a short time but maybe I am wrong.

Only one year as CEO. 2.5 years at the company in total.

Linkedin says he was interim CEO and was fully CEO for the last 6 months.
He has been a designer as well.

Short term or long term, moving from designer to CEO is a kind of strange leap in any context - unless you started your own company I suppose.

Occasionally they say “I take full responsibility,” even though they actually don’t

they also generally take home the most pay, which is a kind of doing something.
