<|assistant|>
Ralph Lauren was a bad CEO because he struggled to effectively manage his businesses, leading to decreased sales and a drop in stock price. Lauren struggled to keep up with changing trends and made missteps in terms of product offerings. He was also heavy-handed in terms of decision making, which created unnecessary tension among executives. He also resisted change and failed to adapt to the evolving business environment. Finally, his inflexible leadership style failed to foster an innovative workplace, contributing to an uninspired and unmotivated workplace culture.
