The survey of 751 executives reveals that 79% attribute the public distrust of business to excessive CEO pay. Of the executives participating to the on-line survey, 53% were CEOs, 34% held vice president positions, 10% were directors and 3% held other senior level positions.

The survey, conducted for Boston College by GlobeScan, is the only research of its kind that provides a comprehensive overview of small, medium and large-sized U.S. business. This webinar will present an overview of the survey's findings and look at their implications for business.

Some preliminary findings of the survey can be found on the blog www.corporatecitizen07.com.
