What is a COO?

A Chief Operating Officer (COO) is a senior executive responsible for overseeing the day-to-day administrative and operational functions of a business. The COO typically reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and is often considered second in command within the organization. Their primary role is to ensure that the company's operations run smoothly and efficiently, aligning various departments and teams with the company's strategic goals. COOs may also be involved in developing policies, managing resources, and implementing business strategies to drive growth and profitability.
