Ultimately the vision has to be more important than any individual, even the source of that vision. Of course the key now is getting just the right CEO. As a CEO myself (and no I won't be putting my hand up!) my advice is to find someone who is not so much a visionary as a strategist. More of an organizational and strategic technician. The key to scaling an organization is in the deployment of resources: in particular creating the right environment and structures ready to meet the planned growth. So for me, I.T expertise is minor to this, what they need is a first class strategist. http://brownblog.info/ It takes guts for a founding visionary entrepreneur to step aside and hand the reigns over to another.

The future is uncharted, so I don't believe his comment was as salient as you think it was. I'll be writing a post on this soon enough... but not too soon. ;-) No offense, but Bloomfield has only been looking at the past.
