Analysis of Leadership in Crisis-Mode: The case of BP and the 2010 Deepwater Horizon Disaster<\/p>\n
For this assessment, you will deliver a short essay as an individual in which you analyze and comment on leadership during a crisis, focusing on the case of BP and the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. You will conduct research on this disaster and the response of Tony Hayward as CEO of BP at that time. This tragedy led to 10 deaths and widespread pollution, which affected health, wildlife, and the tourism industry in several states in the U.S.<\/p>\n
Instructions<\/p>\n
You may do this assignment or assignment 2 A.<\/p>\n
Complete background readings, listed below and\/or any others you find relevant.<\/p>\n
Conduct further research, using online and other appropriate sources, to investigate the responses and comments by Tony Hayward, the CEO of BP at the time of the Deepwater Horizon disaster in 2010. <\/p>\n
In your short essay (approx. 1500 w.) you should discuss Tony Hayward\u2019s actions and comments and whether they were appropriate to the situation in view of his role as a leader. Provide specific examples, including his responses at the Senate Investigations hearing in Washington under Senator Henry Waxman.<\/p>\n
Your essay must also discuss how, in your view, a leader should respond to a crisis situation such as the Deepwater Horizon disaster. You may also discuss what an organization and its leaders can do to help address potential risks and communication issues with a view to preventing such crises. Thinking about prevention is very important, and many articles about Deepwater Horizon address this. Use the Internet to access some of them.<\/p>\n
Justify your analysis, your discussion and your opinions by drawing on your research, course concepts and frameworks. You may also integrate your own beliefs about leadership. Cite sources as appropriate. <\/p>\n
Background reading<\/p>\n
