Opinion:
If I were the new CEO of Chevron
Chevron's incoming CEO John Watson heads a company beset by critics. Peter Asmus offers a manifesto for turning risk into opportunity
New Chevron CEO John Watson has inherited a mess from outgoing CEO David O’ Reilly – but with challenge comes opportunity.
It is clear that Chevron’s historical reliance upon litigation to get what it wants is being eclipsed by new activist strategies that have effectively boxed Chevron into a corner.

If I were new CEO of Chevron - Edward Warren, 14 Oct 2009
Splendid low confrontation approach to revealing the results of "profits at any cost" as practiced by some oil giants. In the absence of an effective new legal defintion of a business or corporation that includes the requirement to nuture and protect the people and their environment we need some effective carrots and sticks that work globally. I hope honest ethics are mandatory studies in Law Schools and MBA porograms.
