According to Oil Daily (2003), "coming off a disappointing 2002, BP announced a series of management changes on Thursday that could portend an imminent, major shift in the company's business strategy, and possibly provide clues about who might succeed John Browne as chief executive down the road." (OD, p. 1) Evidence suggests a company striving to shift its orientation internally to match changes in its role in the broader marketplace. The case study goes on to lay out a host of HR training strategies that demonstrate BP's commitment to greater personnel consistencies across all of its global holdings.
Thus, the expected result underscores the primary rationale that more explicitly pronounced HR principles will bring greater quality assurance and consistency to all of BP's operations.

Conclusion:

The resolution of this case study is that following a period of healthy and aggressive expansion fully justified at the time of its occurrence, BP would be forced to turn its attention to a greater internal set of controls. Improved HR consistencies combined with a preservation of BP's progressive and non-hierarchical 'atomic unit' structure are projected to manage BP's 'reputation' on a global scale.
