Gem of the day

Update: Gazprom's first-ever sustainability report just cruised into my inbox. But wait, there's something not right here. How come it says 2008-2009? That's right. They're not only producing their first-ever report, they're producing it for a period of 2 years ago.

Only from a self-described 'leader of the Russian economy', folks.

I can't decide which is my favorite element: the up-close, 'candid' portrait of Alexey Miller, the company's chairman, the section mysteriously titled 'Employees' Energy: the Company's strategic resource', or the strategically inserted stakeholder 'Viewpoints' which include a mayor testifying to the company's commitment to fund 'certain sporting events'.
