"The last thing any executive should be doing is getting caught up in the weeds of management. The executive needs to lead and define the organizational strategy and the management team needs to execute. The executive is the link between what needs to get done (stakeholders' needs) for the stakeholders and getting it done (management execution) through the organization's people, process, and technology." --May 2009
