Tony Fernandes has never been one to dwell on protocol. After all, the AirAsia chief shook up aviation with a disruptive Malaysian budget carrier that challenged full-fare rivals across the region. Now, some of his LinkedIn followers say he crossed a line.

Readers excoriated Fernandes after he posted a picture of himself shirtless, receiving a massage as he sat at an office conference table and presided over a conference call.
