the gist

CSOs are senior leaders, often peers to the CFO/CRO, who own the company's long-term strategy, frequently including M&A. The role varies wildly — at some companies it's a powerful strategic function, at others it's a holding pen for an exec without an obvious org.

a typical day

Working session with the CEO, M&A target review, board prep, and a strategy deep-dive with a business unit lead.
