Doing Good Does NOT Make you Responsible

Why does no one trust BP CEO Tony Hayward? No one trusts Tony Hayward because he and BP have not made -- never made -- the conscious decision to be responsible and every action they take continues to demonstrate their lack of responsibility. Take their continued reluctance to be transparent. They show zero interest in measuring or disclosing the true amount of oil coming out of that well. They release information on their repair operations on a "need to know basis." No amount of "make good" -- in fact no amount of doing good -- can make up for a fundamental lack of character. BE transparent Tony. BE Accountable Tony. BE Responsible Tony. Then you can try to earn back our trust. |

The model for dealing with this crisis is less Watergate and more Mandela's Truth & Reconciliation process used in South Africa after the end of Apartheid, forgoing recrimination without forgoing justice, so that our best can go to work.
Where do we go from here? Looking at the BP Oil Spill from the viewpoint of the CR profession.

Should Tim Probert, President of Halliburton's Global Business Lines and the company's senior Environment, Health, & Safety Officer, be held criminally liable for the company's role in the BP Oil Spill? Should BP's Corporate Responsibility officials? Transocean's?
