If none of them is technical then why aren't you the CTO?
You're the CTO in all but name.
I would say that's the job of a CTO
You might not have a good CTO then
The CTO is non-technical? How does that work?
That's the CTO, not the CEO.
I think it’s quite normal (at least at some companies) for a CTO to spend some time writing code as part of setting technical direction. In that case there might be other executives who do the other parts of the CTO role you imagine (eg having lots of reports).
the role of a CTO isn't either about coding ;)
A CTO can't have friends in their department?
It sounds like you are CTO in title only
