Ahh - just found the one other post you referred to:

The majority of CEO's have a specialty. Whether in aviation or outside they often come with a background from finance, marketing or operations. Their area of expertise tends to lie in one area or another. So to expect B Naf to understand all the nuances is a bit much.

But a good CEO at a successful company will surround himself with highly competant people in every area - specifically those he is weak in. This is what GF has NEVER done. GF has always promoted and hired based on whether someone was Bahraini and, in Hogans day, if he was Austrailian. In every case connections played the primary role.

So now they confirm the CEO but say his right hand man has to be Bahraini - same old same old. Hamstring the the CEO.

On the other hand no self respecting manager would take a job at GF any longer because it reputation is too well know.


I thought it was obvious in the statemant that 'manager' reflected the position of CEO which the thread was discussing. No comment intended on flt ops management - which I have always been positive about.

Even in this post I don't 'slag' BN or upper management - it is the opposite. I commented negaitively on the BOD and government.

Anyways, 42C outside and time for a swim!!!
