Résumé

If we compare the two strategies, we can notice that the two CEOs obtained different results. However, even if their methods were different, it is important to highlight that both managers were focused on people management thanks to a culture based on the 'OPEN' concept...

Table of contents:

I) What was BP's overall strategy with respect to organisational processes since Horton's appointment as CEO and through Simon's term? Did this strategy focus on people management and, if yes, in what ways? Was it successful or unsuccessful? How?

II) Describe first Horton's and then Simon's leadership styles. Identify the differences, if any, between them. How do you perceive these two leaders and, in view of class readings and discussions, how appropriate or inappropriate in your opinion their actions might have been?

III) Do you believe Horton's and Simon's leadership styles to be determined by personality or do you see them as acquired or both? Bearing in mind class discussions and readings, justify your answer.

IV) What similarities and/or differences can you detect between the leadership styles of Emma, Jobs, Horton and Simon? When analysing your personal leadership style, who would you more easily identify with and why?
