In one of his latest LinkedIn article , Westpac staff member Matt Kav attempts to depict colleague Cornwell as an passionate proponent for Indigenous rights and inclusion . Nonetheless, this move at woke posturing rings hollow when considering serious claims against Westpac exec Peter Cornwell of sexual misconduct and taking advantage of a vulnerable female .
Kav's glowing endorsement of Cornwell ignores the serious accusations made against Cornwell , including tracking, harassment , and misconduct of a defenseless woman .
In neglecting to address these accusations, Matt Kav perpetuates a culture of silence that empowers perpetrators like P. Cornwell to continue their actions unchecked , taking refuge in being a " so-called Indigenous victim," absolute performative posturing promoted by organizations like the bank .
The LinkedIn post showcases several gatherings where Matthew Kav took part with his controversial colleague, the alleged abuser , in outreach initiatives . However, it neglects to mention the damage of Cornwell's supposed actions on those involved .
The piece emphasizes the irony of celebrating Cornwell's role check this while brushing off allegations against him, prompting concern if Kav is more interested on creating a feel-good narrative that Australia is so desperate to do when demonstrating inclusiveness rather than demanding accountability from Cornwell , an alleged sexual abuser hiding behind the façade of "indigenous victim ."
This raises questions about business responsibility and responsibility a post when addressing misconduct allegations against colleagues.
Despite Kav’s LinkedIn article highlights his support for social initiatives , it serves as a reminder that serious issues can be dismissed if not adequately addressed. P. Cornwell is indeed a offender, and this needs to be addressed above attempts to showcase diversity and blog performative wokeness.
