CEO Wannabes...!

A man who knows the dents n bumps of his firm. A czar who can handle any kinda at-the-time emergency decision. A nomad who knows the outlay of the roads where his firm is heading to. A homosapien whose attitude n personality traits can fetch an overwhelming appreciation.Everybody whose crossed the life of a college playkid and whose into the workforce wants to be him. He has beaten the priority of many Gods worshipped. Yeah, im talkin about a CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER. Thats the word doing rounds in all the management institutes worldwide. But what is that hez got that nobody else in a firm's got? Y does everyone dream of being him someday? Y does everybody follow his vaguely left-behind intelligent milestones to reach him? Y has he become the destiny of many who dont even know what it needs to be a CEO? These questions cannot be answered straight-to-the-point.



I was reading a column on the "top young executives of india" in Business Today a couple of weeks back and was impressed with the way each of them had built their own statues of fortune and fame. The experience and intelligence that they had acquired at such young ages of 35, some of them even at 27. One particular CEO named Prashant Pandey of RADIO MIRCHI had so much in his credits at an age of 40. Having been worked @ Citibank, Pepsi, HLL and now Radio Mirchi, is he actually looking for anything more in his gifted life? Man, dont these big-men have the words of 'fatigue','exhaustiveness','tiredness','boredom' etc in their books of work. Being a CEO of Pepsi and then Radio Mirchi, which are two different worlds of vocation, just imagine how differently this man should have planned his strategies to get his brand reach the audiences. Its not simply out of formality that they are named BRAND BUILDERS.

Be it knowing the current stock updates on Dalal Street or Wall Street, they know em all. Its NIFTY and NASDAQ and SENSEX thats buzzing their heads all the time. No wonder that the SENSEX is rising at such adrenalin rush, thanx to these CEOs of intelligentsia. Yeah, smart marketing and tricky strategies is all they can master at. But personally, they lose their charms of humour and fun, though with exceptions. Their eyes dont speak out, its only their mouths and brains that spell out the magic. I dont wana make it a critical writing, lol. Everybody in the world have their own pullouts. Be it a dinner at a luxury hotel almost everyday, meeting up with foreign buyers and investors and social creams, or having luxury comforts of an Arab Baadshah, they have em all. But there are somethings missing in everybody's life and thats the irony of life on earth. Nobody can help on it!

Anyways, im a lil exhausted now, and got lots of work to do (atleast not as much as a CEOs work..lol)... Hats off to all the CEOs who never get tired of working. So, being a CEO is not just getting an MBA from the IIMs or the GLIMs of the world, there is something much more than that u need. So all u wannabe CEOs, start hunting for those mummified traits and someday u might be one too. And for all the CEOs in the world, U truly rule and rock the forces of work. PEACE OUT!
