CEOs clean up their behaviour
In his TBL Blog (http://getsustainable.net/blogfiles/blog.html ) Andrew Savitz commented only last weekk that “If you're a CEO working to position your company at the forefront of the sustainable business movement, you should devote a little time to analyzing and, if necessary, "cleaning up", your personal life.” He goes on to outline how this means the kinds of cars you drive, the houses you own, and the holdings in your retirement account. This is worth doing says Savitz because “if your efforts on behalf of sustainability provoke resistance or resentment from any quarters, you can be sure all those purely personal matters will come under scrutiny”. Remember the attacks on Al Gore for owning a big house and flying around the world by jet.
