Jon Allsop Interviewed outgoing Financial Times CEO John Ridding about his term of office and the future of the financial newspaper.
Allsop writes: “Ridding had Are also increasingly involved in the strategy in its earlier role, working on the Asian edition of the FT. Becoming a CEO was a steep learning curve. But he soon made very consistent decisions. The coverage price of the printed edition went up, which was controversial in the newsroom. (When he e-mailed the staff to let them know, an economic correspondent answered who answered that he hoped he was gone, knew what he was doing.

When it disappeared, I had a conversation with the team, and they agreed for a while.
