well if he/she is such a fantastic earner they should be held personally liable for the banks losses stemming from their reckless conduct (clicking on email links or opening strange documents)

The power in corporations will pretty much always lie with profit centers (i.e. sales) over cost centers (i.e. security). I'd doubt that almost any company will be able to overcome that. Better to focus on mitigation of risks than fight political battles that you're not going to win as an infosec team IMHO.
