Are there many (or any?) cases of this having a long-term effect on a company's culture/focus? I know it's the most-advertised reason for hiring an outside CEO, but I couldn't find any examples of a company's culture changing, and staying changed for years/decades, as a result of doing so.

IDK. Probably? Best I can do is give up an article about why CEOs turn over (and more frequently now than previously). Changing culture can be hard, but is possible.
