Optics vs. Substance · Conflict & Rebrand

Two scorecards, one hub: Institutional Rebrand and Conflict of Interest (Political). Includes Easy Read + AAC options and live result ledgers.

🔍 Step 1: Identify the Rebrand

📊 Step 2: Score the Signals

CriteriaQuestions to AskScore (0–3)
🔄 Continuity Do the same leaders, clients, or business lines remain in place?
🌀 Narrative Pivot Does the new brand lean on words like “innovation,” “safety,” or “public benefit” without concrete reforms?
🏛️ Structural Smokescreens Have spin‑offs, holding companies, or mergers been used to hide liabilities?
⏰ Timing Did the rebrand follow scandal, lawsuits, whistleblower leaks, or regulatory pressure?
⚖️ Accountability Measures Are there independent oversight, reparations, survivor input, or new governance structures? (Higher score = less substance)
Total Score: 0/15 Looks Substantive · Look Deeper

Interpretation: 0–5 substantive reform possible · 6–10 mixed optics/substance · 11–15 high risk of reputation laundering.

📢 Step 4: Advocacy Action

  • Share findings; keep using the old + new names together.
