On average 60% of a CEO’s time is spent in meetings. CEOs spend about 4.7 hours per week with consultants and only 1.3 

hours with suppliers.

CFO

If the CFO’s analysis shows that a solution can add value and improve operational efficiency they will focus on determining 

the best way to implement it.

CMO

CMOs are notorious for their short tenures, and not by choice. The average CMO keeps their position for about 19 months.
