Many people who I met while writing this article told me they don’t want the full blown responsibilities of being a founder. They just like doing lots of different things. But ultimately, you’re right.

Schipplock has a good imagination, realistic, too:
>As someone already commented, it‘s a recipe for a burn-out.
But doesn't burn out the real wildcard CEO material. For this person it's not wild to go beyond a recipe, it's common.
A lower-performing CEO who's only involved in less than everything a company does, limits the company to achieveing less than everything it could. These are the ones most threatened by a wildcard operator at any level, and that trepidation will trickle down until making contact with the threat in a neutralizing way. Poisoning the chain of command against comprehensive problem-solving all the way down.
