I pity the poor sods lumbered with LCG...Talk about a smilng assassin. More than willing to sit and do nothing except make himself a millionaire as he did at BA. Sounds like he'll fit right in down in the Gulf.
What amazes me about this blokes is they genuinely believe that they are right. Good Luck......

Thanks for the heads up huntergboy. You are so right, the Gulf seems to be a magnet for these types I'm afraid....
Luckily for us our new Chairman is very switched on, so I suspect he'll size your man up pretty quickly.....hopefully anyway.
Cheers

ops, ops, ops
Sorry guys but in any business if you don't get the execution correct you will have to fall on your sword...... You can put any monkey on the board but unless operations execute we fail.... it's not about the board it's about product, people and process... Oh and culture , culture, culture....
In this region we want to be the biggest.... what about the best, create the plan, hire the right people and execute... excuse me but what this region lacks is the right people on the bus (airbus or boeingbus)... not the guys up the front on the wheel but the people that create the environment that allows them to execute............
that's it I'm out crossing the stops....bye
