Unless his degrees are in business or he started his own company he would not get a shot at being a CEO. To answers the other points: his current position does not require him to generate revenue and/or make a profit - the main qualifications a CEO must have, usually learned by coming up through the ranks. Additionally he has to answer to the school committee so he is not autonomous. Granted in a large enough company he would have stockholders and a BOD to answer to, but $30 million is not a large company in this day and age, therefore the CEO has to have full knowledge of his/her industry. Additionally many $30 million companies do not have 500 employees and/or unions. In my industry a $30 million dollar company would be lucky to have 100 employees, and I don't work for an automated manufacturer.
