There seems to be a huge corporate governance issue here. How does the Chairman decide to rescind the CEO's decision - and then publicly do so?
I believe it was a protocol thingie...the Chairman was in London when the directive was issued by the CEO...but when the decision was rescinded, he was back in town and procedurally he was the one to make the announcement...and in his absence the CEO....but what intrigues me is that the regulator can set the ball rolling for you and when public pressure mounts, your business is brought to a halt because the licensed business 'practice and procedure' guidelines are not posted in the public domain [read..regulators' websites] for businesses to thrive and be protected. -- -- Bildad Kagai MD - MediaCorp Limited Nairobi Stock Exchange [NSE] - Authorised Information Vendor Suite B2 Tetu Apartments StateHouse Avenue P.
