The CEO Challenge
So what does Nortel CEO MikeZafirovski do when he’s not working to save the company? If he still has the time, Mike Z. could be competing in the Ironman CEO Challenge, a company created by Ted Kennedy to provide CEOs with the ultimate racing experience. According to MSNBC, Kennedy’s firm offers CEOs VIP treatment: first-class accommodations, entry to sold-out races, uniforms, VIP passes to special events, and a welcome dinner also attended by pro athletes or well-known coaches. Not sure if Mike Z. still has time for Ironman races given Nortel’s challenges but it’s encouraging to see there is life for CEOs beyond business trips and expensive, rich dinners.
