What abilities a successful CEO needs

As per this New York Times article:

• The ability to allocate cash flow for growth. Without growth, little else matters.
• The ability to pick the right managers for the operating jobs. C.E.O. “vision” is largely realized through the people in the critical posts.
• The ability to inspire the troops. Charisma comes in many colors; getting others to be excited about the mission is one of them.
• The ability to be aware of and understand all the moving parts. Chief executives don’t need in-depth knowledge of every discipline — accounting, marketing, sales, benefits, taxes and so on — but they need to know enough about each one to ask the right questions.
