I'd argue the CEO is the most important person, usually. We see dipshits like Musk and turn around and bag on all of them.
Think of a business, doesn't matter if it's local or national. How do the employees act? Are they happy and seem to be doing useful work? Are they downcast and depressed looking?
Sometimes it's the local manager staving off corporate bullshit, but company culture mostly rolls down from the CEO. They saying, "Shit rolls downhill.", works both ways.
