Dysfunctional

Both Daniel Goleman (Emotional Intelligence) and
Alistair Mant (Intelligent Leadership)
Reached the same conclusion:to be a CEO or senior executive in any large company you must be basically dysfunctional.You lack remorse,compassion,empathy and introspection.Almost a sociopath.The Australian Financial Review carried an article in a similar vein last year.They went further.Indeed according to their research the psyche profile for most CEOs had more in common with that of a typical serial killer.If you have ever had the pleasure of Geoff Dixon`s company and conversation the parallels that may be drawn are astounding.
Sunfish et al you are absolutely correct with your appraisal of him.
John Borghetti is worse.Short(er than Dixon) and with very little style or taste.You should see what he has done to company`s Series 5 BMW.It ain`t gonna get any better under his management....if possible maybe even worse
