Surprises for the new CEO of Mid-Market Companies
The new CEO of a mid-market company has very different challenges when compared to a CEO of a large company. In the larger companies an executive can be groomed for the job over many years, have access to mentors and advisors, but in many Mid-Market companies the CEO is offered the job often with little training or preparation. As a result the new CEO is often surprised by many issues that a more seasoned CEO would not lose any sleep over.
