Boeing's Secret Weapon Isn't on the Factory Floor -- It's in the Boardroom

Boeing's board of directors has significantly strengthened with the addition of experienced aviation and aerospace executives under new CEO Kelly Ortberg. The board now includes leaders like David Joyce (former GE Aviation CEO), Akhil Johri (former United Technologies CFO), and David Gitlin (former Collins Aerospace president). This expertise is positioned as crucial for Boeing's long-term turnaround, including developing next-generation aircraft while managing a $715 billion backlog and restoring its balance sheet.
