Risk assessment - threats related to top management

I am in the process of completing the Risk Assessment table. Can you give me examples of what types of threats that top management could pose in a very small company--5 people?

Answer:

Threats could be numerous, but I would say that the biggest threat is unavailability of e.g. the CEO, especially if the related vulnerability would be that there are no replacements for that person.

Other threats could be similar to other employees - breaking the information security rules, misuse of assets, not protecting adequately confidential information, etc.
