How does one insulate a company from corrupted CEOs?

[–] Ignisnex@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Technically that's what a board of directors is for. They are the ones who can axe a CEO and hire another.

Yet they're not capable of sussing out bad actors before hiring them, so how is a board a good system?

It's good on paper, so long as a critical number of them aren't bad actors. You kinda got the same problem with US politics at the moment. It works until it doesn't, like everything else.

It seems clearly nothing works.
