Abstract

The aim of this contribution is to underline the role played by the entourage of the top executive, which is key to his achievement. Beyond his close colleagues, the members of the executive committee and his professional networks, we shall see the extent to which top executives assemble an entourage of loyal people who contribute to their effectiveness. This contribution suggests a definition of the top executive’s entourage and highlights several of its functions.
