Is moral outrage the appropriate response to the collapses of Enron or HIH or are we all implicated in a crazy system? Haigh argues that the attempt to create great entrepreneurs of the new caste of CEOs by giving them shares is doomed to failure and inherently absurd.

'The world where the CEO is deemed to be a 'genius' at least equal to a great actor or a great sportsman is a world in which . . .

More, as so often, has brought less . . . ' - Gideon Haigh, Bad Company
