Correct me if I'm reading this wrong, but it looks like Akio Toyoda; !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , Racer, lover of cool cars with feel, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! and all around nice guy takes home very little for running one of the worlds largest corporations. Makes other execs look [more] like money grubbin' asshats.

There is some rational that working hard nets you big compensation, that's the American way right? And there is no arguing that Mulally has certainly earned some reward for his work at Ford, but there is also good research that shows that past a certain point there is no correlation between motivation to do a good job and compensation. A point think Akio Toyoda, who has done an admirable job of rescuing Toyota from its beige self, demonstrates with aplomb.
My hats off to you good sir.

I have met him at Fuji Speedway a couple times, he is a really nice guy and likes to talk about cars, he speaks English pretty well. He seemed genuinely interested in what the people at the circuit talked to him about.

The world needs more people who just want to do their job well and love it and to hell with the politics and the payouts.
