Here are some of your views:

Sustainability
Am unsurprised by the falling priority of sustainability among CEOs. With increased clamouring over heathrow expansion and biofuels has anyone seen the green agenda move up the agenda?
Mike Taylor

UK Economy
Confidence is the issue here...and it seems that it's something UK CEOs completely lack!
A Davies

Thinking about the future is key. Being constantly reactive guarantees problems in the future.

CEO Survey
I feel UK CEO'S need to educate themselves on what it is to make decisions at the top level.....as children we watch our parents....and as such in the workforce the CEO is the example everyone follows....More inspirational leadership, Visionairy strength and embracing learning is needed...In short I dont agree with CEO's

Aren't they being a little complacent, or the news we're hearing everday giving a false impression of the reality in business

It seems that not only were UK CEOs ill prepared for the recession, but with their lack of future planning and investment, are not well-equipped for the future either. C Dixon

The Corporate Agenda

Why the reduction in future investment by UK boards. Surely to break out of this recession a more concerted effort to buid for the future is needed?
