All a CEO does is set and push forward a certain culture and a handful of goals, but that is a full time job. Square isn't anything revolutionary or particularly special, the only trick they have is picking up customers who don't understand merchant processing and are willing to pay an extra 1% or so to avoid ever thinking about it.
Edit: I'm not referring to what a CEO is accountable for, just what they actually have control over. A CEO is not god, despite what some may believe!
