MBA's ?
When CX hires smart "qualified" people to tackle tough problems; they all leave and usually quickly. Many years ago (15 or so) they hired a highly qualified young gent ( from Stanford or Berkley) whom I got to know and he didn't last long at all.. Seems CX wanted to fix all their legacy problems without spending money ! Go figure. Here we are today, at least 15 years later, and if you go to click on the link for CathatPacific.com on one of the "company computers" available most anywhere in CX City; it will tell you "I'm sorry, the computer or Web Browser you're using is to old to support this web site"
I think this fact is so well known that Swires have started their own "Management College" in Hong Kong so they can train and educate young minds the "Swire Way". Sad but true.
