Quite fucked up. They're just setting her up for failure. Boeing has done couple of screwed up shit, and the killing of their whistleblower was really the last straw.

Was watching the documentary recently. The first plane to go down was a Lion Air plane, the pilot was an Indian. They ended up blaming the pilot for the crash and said "A US trained pilot would have known how to handle the situation"

Turns out, the pilot was actually trained in the US, Boeing was just being racist.

You do realise why it’s called so right? It’s not like “ oh we are in distress and we need a woman to guide us out”. It’s more like setting her up for failure and take the blame

This is so cool! How often we admit the company is in crisis though 😅

This is actually a pretty sexist move. Makes sense psychologically, women would be perceived to be nicer than men. But they'd also be easier to pass the blame on when things don't work.

Fucked up

Sounds like a conspiracy theory.

Board would prefer someone who can improve shareholder value rather than some scapegoat

There is no shareholder value left for them, it’s now just waiting out the storm.

So you are telling me they've given up on company completely? In that case it makes more sense to just sell off the stake and chill instead of worrying about next CEO anyways
