Darts & roses

Chief Executive, The, April, 2004

ROSE ...

* IBM'S SAM PALMISANO.

For his new "premium price plan" covering stock options for his top execs. Shareholders have to gain before the top brass does. What a sensible way to align interests and repair trust. Who said Sam was just a pretty face?

DART ...

* DONALD TRUMP. His so-called reality show, "The Apprentice," is complete fiction. This just isn't the way the best CEOs do business. Memo to GE's Jeff Immelt, owner of NBC: Send Trump back to his sandbox. Oh, and send his hairdresser along, too.
