SHAREHOLDER VIEWS: DO YOU BELIEVE ROSE SHOULD RELINQUISH THE EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN ROLE?
JEANETTE CAWLEY
“Sir Stuart Rose does a fantastic job. I just don’t think that having two separate people for chairman and chief executive would bring anything extra to the company, because he knows the business really well from top to bottom.”
HAZEL HOARE
“As far as I’m concerned they should get rid of him. I think the board and Marks & Spencer should just get it over with. We already know he’s going to go eventually, so if you’re going, go. He’s just creating instability by staying there.”
IRSHAD AHMED KHAN
“Sir Stuart Rose is doing a great job and saving the business money. It’s a lot of power for one man to wield, but he hasn’t let us down. He’s doing a great job and we’re in safe hands. I believe M&S are taking the steps forward to resolve it.”
AUDREY MONTGOMERY
“I think despite what I’ve read he’s not so bad. He did come in when it was necessary. The real problem is Louise Patten, who’s incharge of remuneration. But no, Rose has really pulled socks up around the place, he’s done a good job”
