We probably mostly all agree on this - paying a performance PROVEN salary.
And as Geoff has shown that he doesn't have the skills to compete with his Asian contemporaries (in Singapore), who are undoubtedly (under)paid far, far less than Basic + $6 million that Geoff demands, surely the highest income earning management staff, who are DIRECTLY responsible for the well-being (shareholder and employee) of the Company, should be on a performance based wage.
I mean, if they're THAT good, there't won't be a problem proving it!
