ceo entitlement from share ownership?
user
if i own shares of a company, am i entitled to apply as position of   ceo? sure, but anybody else can apply too. who decides? the corporate board of directors, who are nominally chosen by a vote of the stockholders. i say nominally, because in practice they are nominated by the current ceo and it's very rare for stockholders to veto the ceo's choice. once in a while a group of stockholders will nominate their own candidate for the board, but they rarely win. i'd like to think there's some socio-corporate or investor-relationship advantage to working or having the option to work in certain positions in said company -- especially by privilege or total outstanding share ownership numbers. why? simply holding a large number of shares doesn't necessarily mean you know anything about running the business.
