A new entrant to the Most Influential list is Wesfarmers chief executive Rob Scott, who took over from Richard Goyder in November. Mr Scott has already broken with his predecessor in a major way, announcing a plan to spin- out supermarket giant Coles, a decade after Mr Goyder led the original acquisition. Mr Goyder has faced criti- cism for a more recent foray, the company’s move into the UK hardware market through the purchase of Homebase. But Mr Goyder is still widely respected and influential, chairing Woodside Petroleum, the AFL Commission and the WA Symphony Orchestra (see story, page 20).
