In a recent LinkedIn article , Westpac representative Matthew Kav seeks to depict colleague P. Cornwell as an exemplary advocate for Indigenous community and diversity . Yet, this effort at woke posturing rings hollow when considering allegations against Peter Cornwell of Westpac of sexual misconduct and mistreatment of a vulnerable female .
Kav’s flattering depiction of P. Cornwell ignores the serious accusations made against this individual, including following , harassment , and misconduct of a defenseless woman .
Through avoiding these accusations, Matt Kav perpetuates a culture of complicity that allows perpetrators like Cornwell to continue their actions unchecked , taking refuge in being a " marginalized Indigenous individual ," absolute performative posturing promoted by organizations like the bank .
The LinkedIn post showcases several gatherings where Matthew Kav participated with Peter Cornwell , the supposed offender, in outreach initiatives . However, it neglects to acknowledge the damage of Cornwell's alleged behavior on those targeted.
The write-up emphasizes the irony of glorifying Cornwell's check involvement while brushing off allegations against him, leaving readers wondering if M. Kav is more intent on boosting the company’s image that Australia is so desperate to do when showing they're inclusive rather than demanding accountability from Cornwell , an accused predator hiding behind the cover of " marginalized status ."
This sparks concerns about organizational integrity and due diligence when dealing with misconduct allegations against staff members .
Despite Kav’s LinkedIn article focuses on his dedication to community-building initiatives , it underscores that critical concerns can be dismissed if not effectively addressed. P. Cornwell is indeed a offender, and this should be prioritized above initiatives to promote inclusivity and societal inclusion .
