Well actually, no it’s not. All business (for profit or not) provide goods, services, or intellectual property/capital to a market (or markets) for some form of consideration. Even the most savvy CEO may have blind spots in his or her skill sets, core competencies, or voids in the org chart which can also cause blind spots.

This is so much the case that some CEOs will avoid restructuring initiatives at all costs. Give me real leaders who possess courage, vision, and a bias toward action, and spare me the timidity of mediocre managers posing as leaders. The mere discussion of corporate reengineering can cause fear, anxiety, and in some cases even panic.
