What will take BA forward??

Just as a slight change from recent posts, I would be interested in what will take BA forward once all the current ER stuff is sorted.

Clearly BA CC need "managers" that they trust. The BA Top team would have hoped that CSDs were such managers, but many of the current crop of CSDs appear to be shop stewards rather than managers. (I wrote many - not "all").

The Flight deck don't have the time to be managers of each group of CC that they fly with, and many in the flight deck do not have the inclination. I will refrain from any comments about their managerial ability.

Thus, how do BA top team develop quickly some more trusted/trustworthy managers to ensure that CC are reasonably managed in future? The CSD types who post on here with balanced common sense can't cover the whole fleet! BA can't afford another layer of managers over the CSDs. An urgent, creative solution is required..........
