Fortune.com is running some video segments of Geoff Colvin interviewing Ken Chenault. Chenault is the CEO of American Express. I’ve written in the past that I was impressed with what the board came up with for a compensation package for their CEO. It pays handsomely, but only after their shareholders were rewarded for owning AmEx stock (did the company perform well and did it perform well compared to the market?). Here are several links to the videos and posts of mine.
