"the CEO must remember the principle of NIHITO (Nothing Interesting Happens in the Office) and must spend time in-market. Get to know competitors well. Spend time with customers and channel partners. Actively work industry associations. Walk the floor at conferences. Understand what the substitute products are (not just direct competition)."
