The purpose of the study in thesis was stated as to address the gap in literature on the role of CEO. Research on the role of CEO is  outdated, as the theory deduced by Mintzberg in the 1970s
has not been  refined and updated in recent days. A major goal of the survey research carried out in this thesis was to use the insights provided by CEOs to improve general understanding of the major roles
played by CEOs and how they generally allocate their time in various critical functions.


The CEO survey instrument was developed based on 31 roles identified from the literature. The survey was sent to CEOs selected from a purchased database and e-mail was used to contact CEOs. The study focused on three research questions: What is the role of CEO, how CEOs allocate their time to roles, and what new or further roles are indicated by CEOs apart from the 31 mentioned in literature so far.
