Reading time: 1 minute
The chief financial officer of a company worth nearly £23 billion accidentally phoned the CEO while discussing plans to oust him, according to reports.
The Globe and Mail reports that Joe Natale, chief executive officer of Canadian telecom Rogers Communications, caught wind of the planned management shake-up after he was accidentally phoned by CFO Tony Staffieri.
Mr Staffieri was allegedly discussing the plan to unseat Mr Natale and other executives with chief legal officer David Miller at the time.
On learning of the plan, Mr Natale spoke to an independent director, triggering an emergency weekend board meeting where the majority of the board backed him and his management team.
Mr Staffieri left the company three days after the failed shake-up.
