Can a Data Scientist be the Future CEO of any company

If you are the CEO of a company, will you ever consider a Data Scientist for your next CEO. If yes, why. If no, why not?

Advantages/Skill set you already have as a Data Scientist, that I would want in a CEO:

Analytical Advantage: Taking informed decisions based on insights from data

Customer-Centric Approach: Improving customer satisfaction through data-driven strategies.

Skills that a data scientist MIGHT or MIGHT NOT have:

Leadership skills for managing teams and organizational culture.

Business and Operations Acumen.

Communication and Interpersonal Skills for effective communication and relationship-building.

If you have the above skillset why wouldn't anyone hire you as a CEO.

Basically, the rule of the game is unless and until you're already performing at a SDE 2 level, you will not get promoted from SDE 1 to SDE 2.

So unless and until you're already possessing a CEO level skillset and relevant experience that leaves no doubt about your capabilities, you will not be hired as a CEO. If you do, there's no reason not to hire you.

If you can sell stuff, yes. If you can't, no.
