CommCore’s CEO, Andrew Gilman was recently quoted in the L.A. Time article, “Uber’s latest setback: Loss of license to operate in London”.
While business experts said Uber’s recent spate of scandals in the United States — including allegations of a toxic culture, the firing of employees and executives implicated in sexual assault and discrimination allegations, and the lawsuits alleging the mishandling of passenger medical data — are unlikely to have played a significant role in Transport for London’s decision, there’s little doubt that it colored regulators’ view of the company.
“We’re entering an era where corporate culture and reputation will be a factor in what regulators do,” said Andrew Gilman, president of crisis communications firm Commcore Consulting Group.
