CEO = Chief Elimination Officer

Post date :

Feb 5, 2026

Your leadership real job isn’t adding more.

It’s removing what slows everyone down.

A true "Chief Elimination Officer" focuses on:

  1. Says NO ten times more often than YES.

  2. Cuts dead projects, zombie initiatives and vanity work.

  3. Streamlines decisions so the team stops drowning in process.

A Chief Elimination Officer doesn’t just run the business.

They declutter it so it can fly.

So one question... Are you adding noise, or removing obstacles?
