Subject: Recognition Update

All,

As planned Alan Rowlands and I , along with our Full Time Officer Graham Daley, met with HR today where we had hoped to be in a position to sign your Recognition Agreement. Unfortunately HR raised, for the first time, that Shell always insists on a ballot in these situations. When we challenged this the only example they could give involved 10 employees working in a joint venture at Gatwick Airport in 2006!!! read more

How much longer will Shell CIO Alan Matula last?

IN RESPONSE TO

“IT OFFSHORING: AFTER THE GOLDRUSH”

Matula’s past is littered with Big Ideas that have never materialized. GSAP is simply the latest. He was the mastermind behind SAP Megacentre which was an attempt to standardize the hardware platform used to run the various SAP systems within Shell. He could not even get Lubricants to use it (they continued to use the Pennzoil / Quaker State platform).

Matula, (shown right) like many other leaders within Shell, hasn’t stayed in the same position very long. He moves on and someone else has to come in and deal with the Big Ideas and Promises that he made. I wouldn’t be surprised to find out he has spent longer in the CIO role than he has in any of his previous assignments. How much longer will he last? read more
