Chris is a Chief Executive within a large PLC. He needs everything in his role as there is just so much to it. The complexity of having to meet the diverse needs of his many stakeholder groups is a constant challenge, so too is the need to deliver value to his ultimate masters, the shareholders. Coupled with all this, his Executive team has competing needs and a very demanding chairman.
Compliance and regulatory considerations are an important element of Chris’ life as he balances the pressures of looking after his shareholders’ interests with those of running a large and complex PLC. Although Chris has Mike (his Managing Director) running the Executive team, he must still make the right decisions at all times, in the best interests of shareholders, staff, customers and other stakeholders.
Chris does not like surprises. As a PLC, Chris has rigorous reporting and governance standards on his business. The mere mention of bad publicity (especially the likes of BBC Watchdog), FSA compliance or a regulatory challenge will get his attention very quickly indeed. And, there is nothing more certain to prompt a special initiative than a competitor stealing the march with a new service or facility.
Chris thrives on accurate and timely information and he believes in orderliness. Chris’ mantra is that a consistent approach and processes make his business efficient and scalable. Ultimately, Chris needs stability in his business and somewhat surprisingly in this day and age, still answers all letters of complaint directly. The fact that he manages to maintain a decent golf handicap and happy home life is testament to his drive and passion.
