“My definition of a good CEO was then and is now a person who is really hands-on, understands the business, and can anticipate issues and have an intelligent conversation with the people rather than just be a bureaucrat. The more a CEO knows about the business, the better a CEO he can be. I don't think that has ever changed.”

(Sandy Weill, former chairman and CEO of Citigroup, in “Wisdom From Weill,” Chief Executive: January/February 2007, Iss. 223; pg. 10)
