%X With the development of globalization, the competition among firms all across the world gets fierce, leading to the great conflict and integration of different cultures and the increase of self-realization needs of common employees motivated by the thought of Humanistic management; along with the more complex operation and gap between the conventional responsibility CEOs take and the long term development of enterprises. Based on the literature review and observation results, a ”°Six-dimensioned CEO Function Model”± has been proposed, which demonstrates that CEOs should perform at least six important functions, e.g., Chief Executive Officer, Chief Edge Officer, Chief Ethics Officer, Chief Emergency Officer, Chief Employing Officer, and Chief Emotion Officer. In order to deal with the operation complexity, CEOs should carry out the six functions simultaneously, instead of mutual exclusive, each function supports and enhances each other.
