Showing off the CEO

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in The Talented Manager, 2012, pp 198-200 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Why do all modern prime ministers and elected heads of state have to be seen out jogging? It may have started with US president Jimmy Carter. British prime minister Gordon Brown seems to have got away without doing it. The next best photo opportunity is to play soccer with some kids. Or at least to do some sort of exercise to demonstrate physical fitness.
