lol……funny sh-t
Would rather go back to the slide talking points than watching an hour of him talking. The townhall is not a talk show.
Will MW be man enough to discuss the dysfunction and terrible morale he's caused at Chevron?
Obviously he wasn’t.
This is the most embarrassing cringe thing I have ever seen us do. Good lord, just drone on about slides. Not THIS.
Audience is entirely ELT, so no good questions will come from there.
Just another version of a CNBC puff piece. We are 25% through SETH and no employee questions. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
@df **former Bloomberg
Is this Bloomberg lady serious?
@c1 Dude, you cannot be serious. If you work for this company, you would know what a sh-t show it’s been lately. All thanks to MW decisions.

@OP Absolutely not. The man lives by the motto “accountability for thee, but not for me or the ELT”
Also, I believe we established that he is a spineless weasel.
You can’t make this up.

So when Chevron CEO Mike Wirth said at the Leadership Institute’s WSJ CEO Council Summit last December, “You can learn a lot of leadership from ‘Ted Lasso,’” I knew I wanted to write about what the show teaches.
With a new season starting today, I first went back to Wirth to ask what lesson struck him most. It was the scene where Ted plays the smug Rupert Mannion character in darts. Ted acts as if he knows little about the game; Rupert fails to ask anything beyond, “Do you like darts, Ted?” As Ted makes a dramatic comeback, he talks about always being underestimated and says a quote from Walt Whitman—be curious, not judgmental—made him realize that “all them fellas that used to belittle me, not a single one of them were curious.”
That Whitman never wrote those four words is beside the point now. The phrase has taken on a life of its own.
For Wirth, it translates to how he leads. “In our work, it’s easy to assume we already know the answer,” he wrote in an email. “Easy to think we know what caused a problem, what a customer wants, or what the best option is. But the best leaders I’ve worked with do something different. They ask questions. They listen. They seek to understand before they decide.”
“Some of the most important lessons I’ve learned came from conversations with people with different experience than me—in a refinery control room, at a drilling site or on a trading floor. Curiosity creates learning. And learning leads to better decisions.”
No, as the bad morale is intentional. Every round of layoffs is worse than previous layoffs by design. The goal is for Houston employees to resign, so they can cause more stress for teammates, so they will resign too. More resignations mean less severance. Not backfilling in Houston is the goal. Opening up overseas is better for shareholders.
