1. Yes. Qantas has a habit of mentoring internal candidates from being virtual plebs to C-suite executive. My money is on Hudson as the most likely candidate. Ms Wirth can’t be ruled out, but Hudson the most likely successor as she has the stronger financial skills.
2. Not likely. The C-suite view the grunt workers as a drain on finances and a unionised pain in the ass. Ms Wirth has a particular dislike for ‘overpaid’ flight crew, as does Alan and Co. It would take a CEO like former suit James Strong to change the QF culture. Dixon passed on the hatred of staff to Alan, who in turn has passed that down to his acolytes. It’s now ingrained.
