Not at all! I may want to change the risk appetite statements of my company and decide to bring in Consultants to prepare a report about RAS seem elsewhere etc. I, as the CEO, could then present the findings and recommendations to the Board of why my company's RAS should change. Where is the 'low moral standard' in that....
Ok - for the sake of not diverting the debate let me apologise if you have found any of my comments on this narrow point patronising. FYI - Leadership is predominately about managing relationships and the differing aims and objectives different stakeholders may have.
That's bringing in 'experts' to agree with your point of view. It harms the Profession's reputation if Actuaries are just going to be some useful 'experts' who can spin some facts together (and omit some other important facts) for a few quid.
I'm not interested in your lectures about leadership which sound like something you've brainwashed yourself with from some self-help book. Stick to the topic at hand.
It's not about being corruptible and unethical; it's actually more about recognising we are human beings and understanding that no one person is an island and must therefore bring others on the journey with you. This often involves compromising.
Haha! Not at all. As it happens I have actually co-founded a business that's doing well so am actually talking from stone cold experience. And to think you accused me of being rude no less than 5 minutes ago... it's laughable. As for your point about not being interested in lectures on leadership... I suspect whether you need it or not will depend ultimately on how ambitious you are. We all could do with lessons on softer skills; I'd personally take a free lesson from anybody anytime.
Haha! You have a certain view of the world, which combined with your pessimism has hardened your beliefs. Let's leave it at that.
