“Senior” smacks of weighty responsibility in the age of planet-plundering Enron-ism; “leadership” implies some special moral quality other than the capacity to lie, crawl and sell subordinates’work as your own. Readers may like to refer, rather, to the realism of Lucy Kellaway in the Financial Times (UK). But then Summers and her consoeurs have been trying to rearrange the deckchairs for Ladies Only on the Australian Titanic for 20 years and more.

It is noteworthy that there seems not to be a single piece of info/comment on this site about what Summers does at Greenpeace as Board Chair. Now why is that, given that she regularly contributes to Australia’s massive overshoot on Kyoto CO2 levels by flying off to Amsterdam or Beijing on Greenpeace business?

Admittedly, given that Greenpeace is another NGO which believes that corporations can be made to behave benignly, Summers’ flights are at least consistent with her neoliberal “jobs for the girls” language.
