Any company CEO does not know shit that goes on in the dev department so her answer does not surprise me, ask the Devs or the team leader in charge of the project. The CEO is only there to make sure the company makes money as he and the share holders only care about money!
She's CTO not CEO. She absolutely should know the answer.
She knows the answer. She doesn’t the legal status of the answer, so she blanks. Been there before, I’ve got some sympathy for being in the limelight and being asked a tough question.
As my media trainer said, if you aren’t willing to discuss a subject, make it a condition of the interview. Once the camera rolls, declining to answer seems incredibly suspect.
She should but she does not as I mention in another post anyone at team leader or above in all the companies that I work so far bearly had any technical skill and didn't have any idea about this shit, only some bits and pieces that they got through some documentation that the dev team made. They had some vague idea of how our infrastructure works but that about it.
Chief Technology Officer, not CEO
So you mean another person that has no idea because is higher up on the chain of command that all he/she cares about is how to make more money ? Seriously in any company I worked untill not everyone at the level of management or above had mostly no idea about this shit and most of them I have no idea how they got in those positions as they have close to 0 technical skill! And the speeches that those people do are made by people that again are not part of the infrastructure or development team. I do find this disturbing as hell but at this point it's also what I expect to happend as I only seen this shit.
