To me what a CEO is and does can vary greatly depending on the actual company. For example, the CEO of a company that has 100 employees is likely to be heavily involved in the day to day operation of the company. They may be very hands on carry out a variety of different tasks in any given day/week. The CEO of a company like Intel or Microsoft is more like the captain of a ship. They make big decisions and choose the direction the company is going to go in. They are the figurehead and public face of the company. They are less likely to be involved in the day to day minutia of running the business and are much more involved in the big picture.
