Market Wire, October, 2004

ChristiaNet, Inc. (http://www.christianet.com), the world's largest Christian Internet website has just interviewed Archie Dunham, CEO of ConocoPhillips. At a time when the perception of corruption in corporate America has come to the forefront, Dunham was asked to address his responsibility as a leader, his management of employees, and how faith plays into his values for the company. Dunham's role as a Christian business leader includes striving for excellence in meeting, "the demands and expectation of all of stakeholders" and creating a work environment in which a high level of integrity is maintained across the organization.

Dunham addressed his company's values including safety in the work place and respect for the environment. The company has locations all over the world. For Dunham, "It doesn't matter where we do business; the values of our company are the same world wide." He also spoke of the pertinence of maintaining strong accountability within his company.

Based on international business experience, Dunham believes that America "has the most honest system in the world." While admitting to the challenges that face large global companies, he explains the importance of allowing employees of "different cultures and religions" to live out their faith in the work place. He credits his personal success to God's guidance on his life. "The key is making Christ the Lord of our life and then encouraging others to do the same."
