Dietrich - AA Board

Wow, not a good feeling and certainly not someone who backs any kind of labor. United just posted their Q3 results and things looked decent, but I still am getting very worried about the industry in the coming months.

The AA board is an interesting cast already.

  • Gregory D. Smith – Chairman of the board and former Executive Vice President and CFO of Boeing, with extensive aerospace and finance leadership experience.
  • Robert D. Isom Jr. – Chief Executive Officer of American Airlines Group and a longtime airline executive with experience in operations, finance, and commercial strategy.
  • James F. Albaugh – Former CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes and former president of Boeing Integrated Defense Systems.
  • David L. Gitlin – Chairman and CEO of Carrier Global, with a background in industrial manufacturing and engineering businesses.
  • Michael J. Angelakis – Chairman and CEO of Atairos and former Comcast CFO, specializing in private equity and corporate finance.
  • Matthew J. Hart – Former Executive Chairman and CEO of Hilton Worldwide, with decades of leadership in hospitality and finance.
  • Robin L. Hayes – Former CEO of JetBlue Airways and longtime airline executive with expertise in commercial aviation.
  • Jennifer H. Scanlon – President and CEO of UL Solutions and former executive at USG, focused on industrial products and safety certification.
  • Douglas M. Steenland – Former CEO of Northwest Airlines and experienced aviation executive and attorney.
  • Michael C. Van de Ven – Former President and COO of Southwest Airlines, with deep experience in airline operations and network management.
  • Nelda J. Connors – Industrial manufacturing executive and former CEO of Atkore International, with expertise in operations and corporate governance.
  • John B. Hess – Executive Chairman of Hess Corporation, bringing extensive experience in the global energy industry and corporate leadership.
 
Holy moly Mike Van de Ven is on there. Yikes! I never thought I’d see that name again.

He was one of those responsible for the SWA Christmas flightmare of 2022, and he had sailed off a few months prior to leave his life’s work pile of excrement for others to clean up.

Good luck.

I don't think this list is accurate. Jim Albaugh, Robin Hayes, Michael Van de Ven, John Hess, Michael Angelakis, Jennifer Scanlon, and probably some others are not currently on the Board.

Greg Smith, Doug Steenland, and now John Dietrich are.

I should have gotten an MBA, it seems like you can endlessly fail upwards in that world without a concern for job security.
