Exxon Mobois: A Scandal's Analysis
Ronald Kermani, a former journalist of The Times Union of Albany made a guest appearance in class on April the fourth. Mr. Kermani emphasized this idea of “selling out”, which meant taking more money and cutting the workload in half. Kermani said, “Were all prostitutes…you might not be prostitutes now, but you will be.” Although Kermani is a prostitute, he wasn’t a hack. Kermani had a significant role in exposing Exxon Mobil’s scandal when they were selling contaminated water to Aruba.

    Exxon Corporation and the Lack of a True Mission Statement

    Exxon didn’t have a true mission statement and it may have been less of a catastrophe if they had one and followed it. The Johnson and Johnson Mission statement would have been beneficial and also helped lessen the crisis. There are changes that could have been made in both the way they operated, performance measures and even incentive payments.…

    The Lula Legacy: Petrobras Oil Scandal

    During his administration, starting in 2003 and ending in 2011, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva had become enormously popular while the country enjoyed new economic growth and social reform. Lula’s social policies aimed to help those living below the poverty line shift into the middle class by focusing on inequality that had historically gripped the nation. Expansions in oil production and other consumer driven markets encouraged foreign investment and spurred the economy.…

    Political/Legal Factors Exxon Mobile

    Factors in the political and legal environments appear to represent an important influence on decisions made within companies. It seems as though changes in this environment can directly affect company performance. With ExxonMobil operating in nearly 200 countries worldwide (ExxonMobil, 2001) the list of possible political and legal aspects appears to be endless. Importance should be given only to implications that can gravely affect operations. Making this choice of differentiation between significant and insignificant influencing factors may well be the most important decision to be made by ExxonMobil. Therefore the main question that arises is: What political and legal factors from the external environment affect decision making within ExxonMobil.…

    Introduction the Activities of Multinational Oil Companies in Their Host Countries Have Receive Increasing Scholarly and International Attention in Recent Years. These Companies Have Long Suffered from Public

    The activities of Multinational Oil Companies in their host countries have receive increasing scholarly and international attention in recent years. These companies have long suffered from public criticisms especially in developing countries and this gives them a rather unpleasant public image. The oil and gas sector is among the leading industries in championing corporate social responsibility. In recent years, oil companies attach greater importance to their social and environmental impact than they used to (Frynas, 2005). This research is meant to describe and analyze the level of commitment and effectiveness of corporate social responsibility by Statoil and shell in Nigeria, as many findings have proven that there is mounting evidence of a gap between the stated intentions of these companies and their actual practices, and impact on the local population.…

They can be in the form of groundbreakings, world record attempts, dedications, press conferences or organized protests.
