Results DON’T Get Water CEOs Fired... But THIS Does [Corporate Politics & Governance Research]
- 商业与财经
Do Water CEOs Get Fired for Their Results, or for Company Politics? When Saur pushed out Patrick Blethon in October 2026, I noticed he had brought former colleagues into his executive team... just like Sabrina Soussan before SUEZ let her go. So I traced 30 years of water CEOs, 659 tenures at 110 companies, to see what gets a CEO fired: results, gender, age, degrees, friends, or corporate politics.
