Lots of CEOs have private lifts from their underground car parks so they
can avoid meeting not just the public, but even their own minions on the
way up to the executive suite.

Really? That seems rather expensive, compared to just programming the
lifts to stop nowhere else when going to or from the top floor, and
possibly having a back door that is only used in the basement.

There's also the time element. How long would the CEO have to wait on
the top floor for a lift to arrive? And how could you ensure it was
empty.
