Chief of Staff is glorified PA from an elite college.

I have seen those chief of staff to be extremely knowledgable and impactful in companies like Amazon.

But I have also seen companies where those CoS personnel were literally full of themselves and would put random CP in important meetings, without actually being held accountable for anything.

Think it varies across companies and more importantly how well the CEO/CXO can think of those roles
