Telstra chairman John Mullen says there is a greater degree of resentment towards those who make it to the top of the business world when compared to those in fields such as sport and entertainment. Mullen, who is also the chairman of Toll Holdings, is also concerned that company boards do not have enough time to deal with strategy, due to having to spend too much time on corporate governance issues. He is worried that it will be harder to attract quality people to become company directors in the future.
