    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-25951-4 - British Petroleum and Global Oil 1950–1975: The Challenge of Nationalism James Bamberg Frontmatter More information Dramatic narrative, arresting analysis and original research are combined in this history of one of the world’s biggest oil businesses between 1950 and 1975. Assessing BP’s comparative performance, the book focuses on how BP responded politically, economically and culturally to the rise of new competi- tors, the decline of Britain’s imperial power, and the determination of nation states to assert national sovereignty over the vital commodity, oil. Climaxing with the OPEC crisis which shook the world in the 1970s, the book – authorised by BP with uniquely unrestricted access to its records – has wide appeal and relevance, especially for those interested in big business, glob- alisation and nationalism, international affairs, OPEC, the Middle East and oil. james bamberg is an authority on the history of the world oil industry. Author of The History of The British Petroleum Company: Volume II, The Anglo-Iranian Years, 1928–1954, he has for some years been the official his- torian of BP. He is also a visiting fellow at the Centre for International Business History in the Economics Department, University of Reading, and a research associate at the Faculty of History, University of Cambridge. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-25951-4 - British Petroleum and Global Oil 1950–1975: The Challenge of Nationalism James

  • Building DTLA an Architectural Tour with WAYNE THOM Sunday, September 23, 2018 Downtown Los Angeles
    THEMEGUIDE Building DTLA An Architectural Tour with WAYNE THOM Sunday, September 23, 2018 Downtown Los Angeles ABOUT WAYNE THOM o Wayne Thom is an internationally renowned architectural photographer famous for his shots of downtown L.A. skyscrapers. o He has worked with preeminent architects including I. M. Pei, A. Quincy Jones, and William Pereira on thousands of projects over his five-decade career. o He was born in Shanghai, grew up in Hong Kong, lived in Vancouver, and was educated in Southern California at Art Center and Brooks Institute. o Thom is a fellow of the American Society of Photographers and was given a Modern Masters Award by L.A. Conservancy. BUNKER HILL Bunker Hill was undeveloped until 1867, when a French Canadian immigrant named Prudent Beaudry bought the land, created a system of pipes and pumps to get water to the summit, and built roads to connect the hill to the developed areas below. He then developed modest structures, followed by Queen Anne mansions, and by the 1890s, Bunker Hill was one of the most luxurious neighborhoods in L.A. (named after a Revolutionary War battle fought in Boston, and won by the British, 100 years before Beaudry named one of his new hilltop streets for it). The Angels Flight funicular was built in 1901, and the early years of the twentieth century saw the construction of apartments and commercial buildings on Bunker Hill. Over the next few decades, as the growth of the streetcar system, the building of the 110 freeway, and the creation of new luxury neighborhoods in Pasadena and to the west inspired the original residents to leave the area, their large homes were divided up into multi-family dwellings.

  • Κεφάλαιο 10: Διαχείριση Κρίσεων (Crisis Management): Η Περίπτωση Της BP
    Κεφάλαιο 10: Διαχείριση Κρίσεων (Crisis Management): Η περίπτωση της BP Σύνοψη Στο κεφάλαιο αυτό θα μελετηθεί η διαχείριση κρίσεων ως ένα σύγχρονο εργαλείο των δημοσίων σχέσεων. Λόγω της πολυπλοκότητας των σύγχρονων επιχειρήσεων είναι σημαντικό να μπορεί να προβλέπει, να αντιμετωπίζει και να αποφεύγει ενδεχόμενες κρίσεις. Λεπτομέρειες όπως λόγοι εμφάνισης των κρίσεων, τρόποι αντιμετώπισης, ενδεχόμενες επιπτώσεις και διαχείριση επικοινωνίας είναι μερικά από τα θέματα που θα αναλυθούν στην παρακάτω μελέτη περίπτωσης της εταιρείας BP. Προαπαιτούμενες γνώσεις Στοιχεία μίγματος επικοινωνίας, Δημόσιες Σχέσεις. 10. Εισαγωγή Η British Petroleum (BP) είναι μία από τις κορυφαίες επιχειρήσεις στην Ελλάδα και παγκοσμίως. Η μακρόχρονη κερδοφορίας της και η αναγνωσιμότητα της επωνυμίας επιβεβαιώνουν τον κυρίαρχο ρόλο που διαδραματίζει στην εξέλιξη της παραγωγικής διαδικασίας, της τεχνολογικής εξέλιξης και στην κοινωνία παγκόσμια. Στη μελέτη περίπτωσης που ακολουθεί θα ασχοληθούμε με το πώς η BP αντιμετώπισε μία έκρηξη που συνέβη στον Κόλπο του Μεξικού τον Απρίλη του 2010 στην μεγαλύτερη πλατφόρμα εξόρυξης πετρελαίου που υπάρχει. Με ποιόν τρόπο συνέβαλαν τα τμήματα μάρκετινγκ και δημοσίων σχέσεων της εταιρείας στην καλύτερη αντιμετώπιση της κρίσης που ξέσπασε. 10.1 Διαχείριση Κρίσεων Η διαχείριση κρίσεων αποτελεί εργαλείο της σύγχρονης διοίκησης και των δημοσίων σχέσεων με κύριο στόχο την ανάλυση και διαχείριση των κινδύνων που αντιμετωπίζει μια επιχείρηση, ένας οργανισμός, εάν πρόσωπο ή μια χώρα. 10.1.1 Τι είναι η Κρίση και πως συνδέεται με τη Διαχείριση Κρίσεων Ως κρίση ορίζουμε ένα έκτακτο γεγονός ή σειρά γεγονότων που μπορούν να επηρεάσουν αρνητικά την αξιοπιστία προϊόντος ή προϊόντων, το κύρος ή τη χρηματοοικονομική ευστάθεια της επιχείρησης, την υγεία των εργαζομένων και του κοινού, προξενώντας γενικότερα μια αρνητική προσοχή από τα ΜΜΕ ή από άλλες ομάδες επιχειρησιακού ενδιαφέροντος (καταναλωτές, οικογένειες των εργαζομένων, πολιτικούς, περιβαλλοντολογικές οργανώσεις κλπ) (Coombs, 2014).

  • A Personal Journey Presentation by Tony Craven Walker to Scottish Oil Club – Edinburgh 16 May 2019
    FIFTY YEARS IN THE NORTH SEA: A PERSONAL JOURNEY PRESENTATION BY TONY CRAVEN WALKER TO SCOTTISH OIL CLUB – EDINBURGH 16 MAY 2019 Ladies and Gentlemen. I am delighted to be here today. As we are in Scotland, the home of whisky, I was tempted to call this talk “Tony Walker – Started 1965 - Still Going Strong”. Then I read about Algy Cluff’s retirement last week described as “The Last Man Standing” so I was tempted to call it “The Last Man Still Standing”. But I decided on FIFTY YEARS IN THE NORTH SEA: A PERSONAL JOURNEY. With around one hour allotted that works out at around one year per minute so I had better get a move on! Actually it has been 54 years since I joined the oil industry but what a journey it has been. One which is not over just yet as far as I am concerned and one which has given me great challenges and great pleasure. Before diving into things I thought it might be fun to mention that Anton Ziolkowski, your President, and I go back way into the 1950’s when we were neighbours living next door to each other as small boys in London. It is curious and always amazing how the world works to find that we are in the same industry and he has invited me to speak today. I will keep to myself some of the pranks that Anton and I got up to as youngsters, “tin-can tommy” and “mud-ball sling” spring to mind, as I certainly don’t want to embarrass your president.
