Being a chief executive is a wonderful job for those with a well-developed sense of responsibility.
I read somewhere that more leaders are firstborn children than any other family position and I can understand why. As the first child, you are automatically expected to take responsibility for your siblings. If, like me, you are the first child and also a girl, this gets amplified, although my brothers would say it just made me bossy.
