42 What the CEO wants you to know Ram Charan’s “What the CEO Wants You to Know” teaches us about the importance of having complete buy-in and understanding of the business. “If we take care of the business and keep our eye on the goal line, the stock price will take care of itself.” “We want to turn our inventory faster than our people,” Costco’s founder, Jim Sinegal. Sinegal’s words and actions, combined with Costco’s priorities clearly show that he lives and breathes the basics of business and is clear about how Costco’s money is made and his employees are bought in to his concept.
