Boeing CEO 'won't be shy' about bringing in new execs if needed
“Won’t be shy about doing that, but again, I think the team is coming together pretty well,” Ortberg said in response to a question about whether Boeing is considering changes to upper management at its defense and commercial airplanes units. “Having said that, if we need to continue to supplement the team going forward, not just direct reports to me but all the way up and down the organization, we will do that,” Ortberg said. Ted Colbert, then head of Boeing's troubled space and defense unit, left the company last year in Ortberg's first management change, fueling speculation about additional moves.
