Everyone's a CXO for 15 Minutes

I have a pet peeve in that every role within every organization fancies the need for there to be a CXO of that role. I don't know how many CXOs is too many to spoil the broth, but it's a smaller number than those that exist. I'm collecting all the CXO roles, with a focus on new and exciting ones, because I'm idly curious to see how high a number I can grow that to. If I find any relevant websites or professional associations, I'll add them. 

I recognize that some of these titles are...let's say unique to a particular organization or circumstances. I also recognize that there is overlap in some of them and/or that some of them are quite specific for some reason - e.g., the multiple different Chief AI roles listed below. Doesn't matter - someone signed off on those as titles. 

Food for thought: 

• How many CXOs is too many? 

• What's the right ratio of CXOs to, well, everyone else in an organization? 

• If a CXO reports to another CXO that's not the CEO, is that CXO really a CXO, or is it just a VP (or even director!) with a sexier title?

Current CXO count: 254 as of 11/20/2025
