Leading by example ?


Sir Fred Goodwin’s pension arrangements were the central theme of a war of words on Thursday as the former CEO of the Royal Bank of Scotland traded allegations over the terms of his departure from the financial institut with Lord Myners, the City minister. Sir Fred Goodwin, who was forced out of RBS last October, had started collecting a £693,000-a-year pension. The fact that he stands firm on that amount ( under actual circumstances) is a behaviour one should expect from a former Business Leader ? What do You think ?
