I found this article interesting, especially when compared to the theories espoused in Good to Great. The article states, "the ultimate CEO who matters is Steve Jobs, a co-founder and guiding force at Apple. Jobs' departure probably would result in a greater loss of stock-market value than the loss of any other CEO in the world." According to Collins, this would actually make Jobs a lesser leader. If the company would crash without him, he is not preparing for its future, as a Level 5 Leader would do.

I like the list of most respected CEO's...do you think the respect had to do with stock price or did the stock price gain them some respectability...ah the age old question of what came first - the chicken or the egg?
