Is there anything about being CEO that you
don't like, that you like to delegate?
John Foley's Response
""
Finance. Our CFO does 99% of finance. I engage
because I want to know how we're doing. But to say I
don't add value to her operation is an understatement.
You can also say the same with technology. Our CTO
doesn't get any help from me. I'll go sometimes months
without talking to our CTO, which as a CEO of a
technology company, that's kind of rare.
