Re: What did you do at work today?
What Do CEOs Do With Their Time? | 168 Hours

So that’s what the CEO Time Use Project is doing. I interviewed Prof. Raffaella Sadun this morning for an upcoming Fortune.com piece, which I’ll write more about in the future. You can see some results from Italian CEOs here. One interesting finding? Look at table 2A in the appendix for the distribution of number of hours worked per week. It’s a normal distribution around… 40 hours per week. It doesn’t go over 60. The average was around 47. Now, this doesn’t take into account work hours that the assistant was not aware of, such as if the CEO answered emails at night from home, or did some reading on the weekend. But the assistant knows if there’s a phone call booked, a dinner booked, etc. Maybe this is just an Italian thing. Or maybe CEOs don’t actually work 80 hours a week either. We shall see as more data comes out!

I knew most CEO's were full of shit when they said they slept 4 hours a night. That little sleep over a long period of time is the equivalent of walking around drunk.
