The reality is that a ceo, a position which requires truly professional skill and based on merit, does not engage in manipulation of corporate charges to one of the company's divisions to cover up gross errors of a "protected" department. A ceo does not partipate in "secret" assignments of another officer of the company, especially assigning the officer's assistant to that mission. A ceo does not continue his persecution AFTER separation by threatening suppliers, vendors and even a major customer, with loss of business threats, when the 33 years of service and founder of the division attempted to continue his own obligations to earn a rightful need to earn income,whose services were welcomed by them. Like shooting a horse after it was dead.WHY? This is going beyond just being a tough leader. The founder's granddaughter, and daughter of the founder's son(preceding the ceo in this case) had authored a best selling book about her grandfather and the development of the company. She is now forced to work and after I was asked many questions about what really happened to her father. The ceo secretary, having had opportunities to "Learn" things from her,his personal conduct, and supportable revelations to later learn from others, was disgraceful

While seeking to invest in food companies, it was browsing that turned up the existence of this "xxxx" person.

good mathematical attempt. I am 85 years old. The experience of having endured with my last ceo, whom his own exec v.p described as an ego-maniac, is not taught anywhere.

I was hired by the founder of the company, started a new division (to compete with the company's major competitor in another field) Spent 33 years, until separated. Reported to the GM, ceo, brother-in-laws of last ceo, pres. asst, financial v.p.(2), exec v.p. and finally the person of subject. Each stage, very difficult, virtually passed around from pillar to post. There came a time when, under incentives, my earnings were considerable. Eventually, disturbing my friend. I disagree with the premise that one's conduct, attitude or negative personal traits, does not affect the responsibility of a top official from producing results for the shareholders. A mind set of collusion, betrayal, non loyalty to anyone, self appointed mind analyst, using corporate (stockholder's money) for family, be it cars, credit cards, condimuniums, home repairs, personal entertainment, home repairs, etc. and other behaviors which some persons might decribe as immoral and sordid, must have an affect.
Government officals have been discredited for less, lost positions, shamed their families.
The most viscious act of all is go beyond human decency. An officer, separated after 33 years, should not be further punished (the coupe de gras) with threats to vendors and customers who reached out to engage my services, with threats of retalliation, if they continued to employ me. This was sanctioned and motivated by the subject "top gun". WHY was that necessary? I had almost reached the age of 65 and with it went a great deal. I committed no crime, dedicated my life to the business, had about year of vacation time accrued,WHY?

The surviving granddaughter of the founder and daughter of the ceo (prior to our friend's)manipulation to the throne (via the new owners)asked me a couple of years ago, what happened to my father?
