This was back in 2006...not much changed

He said his views on 2006, which he also is sharing with other members of senior management, include these points:
• "We have a leadership style that probably is too directive and doesn't listen sufficiently well. The top of the organisation doesn't listen hard enough to what the bottom of the organisation is saying."
• "We have a management style that has made a virtue out of doing more for less. The mantra of more-for-less says that we can get 100 percent of the task completed with 90 percent of the resources. Which in some senses is okay and might work, but it needs to be deployed with great judgment and wisdom. When it isn't, you run into trouble."
• "The frontline operations teams, I think, have lived too long in the world of making do and patching up this quarter for the next quarter..
He said these problems can be corrected by behavioral changes that "will have to start at the top of the organisation." Continuing his overview of the current year, Hayward said BP still has "quite a lot of work to do" in terms of ensuring the safety levels that are sought for its plants, equipment and processes
