Emma is confused, she's not a CEO. APCGS is a trading name, not a company.

Quotewhenever there are CEO's or Directors in small business
it's is often also a crappy small business

I sometimes sign my business correspondence "Jeff Henningham, proprietor". Usually just "Jeff" though. I have never said "Proprietor and sole employee" although that is true.

I usually sign my correspondence "Mark Chief Cook and Bottle Washer".

Well, yeah, you would. One being the requisite number.

A company may have a CEO, usually when he/she isn't a director.
Or it may have an MD (Managing Director), which is more usual in small outfits with one or two directors.

People use CEO inappropriately because they think it sounds grander. It doesn't really, since it just means you're a hired gun with no real stake or say in the company. The real power rests with the Board of Directors, and the Chairman of the Board, who may or may not also run the company on a day to day basis. If he does, he's an MD. If not, and some employee does it, that person is a CEO.

But either way, there's one and only one head honcho. Who may or may not have a boss to answer to.

And for businesses that aren't incorporated, none of this applies anyway.

I think the CEO tag is appropriate , Matches the pretentions of their slabs perfectly :laugh2:

Have just returned home from a week away with Mrs. Robster and have caught up with all the forum gossip.! I really missed all the action about A.P.C.G.S. :dodgy: Derryn Hinch would simply say ("Shane,Shane,Shane.").
