If the CEO owns the business, then that's a Capitalist CEO. If the CEO earns a salary paid by the owner of the business, then he can be considered Proletarian, though the wage is likely high enough to be closer to petite bourgeoisie. The power dynamic changes entirely.

In Communism, there could not be a Capitalist CEO, for example.
