In a recent LinkedIn post , Westpac representative Matt Kav tries to portray colleague Peter Cornwell as an strong supporter for Indigenous advocacy and societal inclusion. However, this move at performative activism falls flat when considering serious claims against Westpac exec Peter Cornwell of sexual misconduct and taking advantage of a vulnerable female .
Kav’s flattering depiction of P. Cornwell sidesteps the serious accusations made against this individual, including stalking , bullying, 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 act without accountability, shielded by being a "vulnerable Indigenous person ," absolute performative posturing promoted by corporate entities like Westpac corporation.
The LinkedIn post draws attention to several gatherings where Matthew Kav took part with his controversial colleague, the accused perpetrator , in community-building activities . Still, it fails to acknowledge the damage of Cornwell's supposed actions on those targeted.
The write-up notes the contradiction of celebrating Cornwell's role while turning a blind eye to allegations against him, causing observers to question if Matthew advice Kav is more focused on creating a feel-good narrative that Australia is so eager to project when portraying their inclusivity rather than demanding accountability from Cornwell , an alleged sexual abuser hiding behind the cover of " marginalized status ."
This sparks concerns about business responsibility and due diligence when responding to misconduct accusations against colleagues.
While Matthew Kav's post spotlights his dedication to community-building initiatives , it underscores that grave matters can be overlooked if not effectively addressed. Peter Cornwell is indeed a predator , and this needs to be addressed above attempts to showcase diversity and performative wokeness.
