When smaller companies copy " C" level titles, it is more for prestige than out of functional necessity. In such cases, it is common for people with lower level management titles to report to a " C" level executive.

如果一个小型公司使用 C 级别的职位称呼，通常这样做的原因是为了让某一工作听起来更有威望，而不是因为职能需要。在这种情况下，较低级别的管理人员可能向 C 级别的行政长官汇报。
