Article Abstract:
The real issue about exhorbitant executive pay is not the amount but the absurdity in cases of incompetent managers. Many feel that pay should be closely linked with performance, even suggesting pay cuts for poor performance. Companies will likely set pay packages that reflect their performance and narrow the gap between executive pay and workers' pay as they respond favorably to reforms in pay package planning.
