Has she ever considered taking an active role again?

There’s a lot she would change… but she doesn’t want to step on toes.

Her daughter tells her how much people loved working with her and how innovative she was. She’s a legend.

Brooke thinks that’s sweet but there’s no room for her at the top.

Hope points out Steffy is only there because Ridge put her there.

She’s tired of Steffy trying to remove the Logan influence from the company.

Together, they can put an end to Steffy’s leadership.
