Shorthand for a company's top tier of executives, the term C-suite derives from the first letter of the high-level executive titles used by many large enterprises. The most common C-suite titles are chief executive officer (CEO), chief financial officer (CFO), and chief operating officer (COO). These C-suite leaders, also known as C-level executives, make decisions that can determine success or failure for their companies. Major publicly traded companies typically need several C-suite leaders. Standard roles include not only CEO, COO, and CFO, but also chief technology officer (CTO), chief information officer (CIO), and chief marketing officer (CMO). Smaller operations typically only need one C-suite executive, at the most two or three. A small business may have individuals leading key functions of a company, such as finance or marketing, who do not hold C-level titles. Chief experience officer (CXO) : an executive responsible for the overall experience of an organization's pro...

A donkey and a tiger were arguing....  The donkey said to the tiger,  "The grass is blue." Tiger rebutted, "No, grass is green." Then the discussion between the two became more and more intense.  Both of them were firm in their own words and refused to give way.  To end this controversy, both decided to see the Lion, King of Jungle - for a verdict to resolve their argument.  In the middle of the animal kingdom, sitting on the throne was King lion.  The donkey started yelling before the tiger could even say anything.... "Your Highness, the grass is blue, isn't it ?"  The Lion took a look at the donkey and said, "Yes ! The grass is blue." Donkey : "This tiger does not believe or refuses to believe.  Annoys me -  he should be punished accordingly ." The king declared, "Tiger will be banished from this jungle for a week. "  The Lion King's verdict was heard by the donkey and he was jumping triumphantly with joy in the enti...

Here is a short but very inspiring speech about Life by Coca Cola's former CEO Bryan Dyson delivered at the 172nd commencement of the Georgia Tech Institute, on September 6, 1996.   His insight is as valuable today as it was then. Below is the full text. "Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends, and spirit and you're keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that 'work' is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls - family, health, friends and spirit - are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life. How? Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special. Don't set your goals by what ...
