This Will Truly Impress You
In a time when industry seems saturated with the greedy and self-centered this morning brought news that there are some with real heart. This is breakthrough insight that I found totally unexpected and unbelievable.
Seven top executives at Goldman Sachs including the CEO have opted NOT to accept literally tens of millions of dollars in annual bonuses.
What? Highly paid executives that don’t want their bonus based on the right thing to do in this economy.
I am beyond impressed. Finally, a glimmer of hope in desperate times. Will this be a sign of change in corporate executive thinking? Not a chance, but it is a moment when we should all stop and acknowledge these men for their empathetic thought and decisions.
This is truly breakthrough people. It flies in the face of normal executive thinking so much I had to check the facts before I would believe the press release that came in to my desk. Of course, this isn’t the end all answer to all of the economic woes, but it is a personal start.
This is the compassionate direction I have been calling for where people and companies bond together to help one another. Where we go back 40 years in thinking and actually care about our neighbors instead of mindlessly stepping over others as we talk on our cell phone and listen to our iPod.
I applaud you gentlemen and sincerely hope that your generous decision will be the spark for a change in corporate and human thought in America.
