This is an old revision of the document!
Gerhardt Eagan was the 5th CEO of Lumon Industries from 1976 to 1987, after Baird Eagan, and is also a descendant of its founder, Kier Eagan.
The first usage of the title “chief executive officer” was in 1972 in America. So while Gerhardt is the fifth Eagan to take up the mantle of running Lumon Industries, he is the first CEO. The Perpetuity Wing elides this fact, calling everyone CEO back to the founding of Lumon in 1865. It could be argued that since the Perpetuity Wing is on the Severed Floor, they chose to modernize the terminology to reduce questions by severed employees.
