Pure and Simple -- Always Balancing

“I think of myself as a simple CEO, one that likes to find the crucial decision makers within the company, and then give them the freedom to get on with it. I want to be the balancing power.”

(Jouko Karvinen, CEO of Stora Enso, in “European CEO Of The Year.” by Mark Rushton. PPI: May 2008. Vol. 50, Iss. 5; pg. 11)
