This is so much the case that some CEOs will avoid restructuring initiatives at all costs. My question is this…since when have fear and avoidance become prerequisites for success as a CEO? There are even some business theorists that warn against undertaking complex restructurings because of the great risks involved.

As much as you may wish it wasn’t so, as a CEO you’re really only as good as your last decision.

Also, a common response is to confuse a sales engine, fulfillment process, operational process, technology platform, or any number of other areas as business models, where this is not the case.
