David Greer might be feeling slightly less motivational after resigning as the deputy chief executive of Sakhalin Energy Investment Company to “pursue other business opportunities”.
An e-mail from Mr Greer to his staff urging them to “lead me, follow me or get out of my way”, which leaned heavily on the words of General Patton, was leaked this month.
SEIC runs Royal Dutch Shell’s $22bn Sakhalin 2 gas and oil project off Russia’s far-eastern coast.
Shell said the e-mail – leaked to a website – gave no grounds for any inquiry.
It paid tribute to Mr Greer for his 27 years of service, including his time on secondment at SEIC, and wished him well.
A discussion of the memo on the FT’s website drew many comments supportive of Mr Greer, including one who said: “I’ve been in this business for more than 20 years and he is the best manager I’ve seen.”

His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
