Boeing's Search For New CEO Persists As Calhoun Faces Congressional Hearing
Boeing Company (NYSE:BA) is reportedly facing complications in its search for a new leader as several high-profile candidates have declined the opportunity amid discussions about the necessity of the next CEO being based near its Seattle-area factories.
據報道，波音公司（NYSE: BA）在尋找新領導者的過程中面臨着一些複雜問題，因爲一些備受矚目的候選人在探討下一任首席執行官是否需要位於其西雅圖等地工廠附近的討論中拒絕了這一機會。
In March, Boeing's Chief Executive David Calhoun announced his intention to resign by year's end.
今年三月，波音公司首席執行官大衛·卡爾霍恩宣佈他打算在年底辭職。
Larry Culp, CEO of GE Aerospace (NYSE:GE) and widely seen as a suitable candidate, declined Boeing's invitation to consider assuming the role, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing sources familiar with the discussions.
通用電氣公司航空航天業務部門首席執行官拉里·卡爾普被廣泛認爲是一個合適的候選人，但據熟悉討論的人士透露，他拒絕了波音公司提出的考慮擔任這一職務的邀請，華爾街日報報道。
Boeing's Chief Operating Officer Stephanie Pope, Spirit Aerosystems Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:SPR) CEO Pat Shanahan, and aerospace veteran David Gitlin, who serves on the company's board, are also facing hurdles in their pursuit of the top job.
波音公司首席運營官史蒂芬妮·波普、Spirit Aerosystems Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:SPR) 首席執行官帕特·沙納漢和擔任公司董事的航空業老將大衛·吉特林也面臨着尋求最高領導崗位的障礙。
On Tuesday, Calhoun heads to Capitol Hill to testify before a Senate panel, highlighting the challenging nature of Boeing's leadership vacancy.
週二，卡爾霍恩前往國會山接受參議院委員會的證詞，凸顯出波音公司領導層空缺的挑戰性質。
He is set to address issues ranging from whistleblower allegations to the January incident where a Boeing 737 MAX experienced a near catastrophe with a blown-off fuselage during flight.
他將討論從揭發者的指責到今年1月一架波音737 MAX客機在飛行過程中出現機身脫落的近乎災難性事件等問題。
Calhoun's successor will need to address these issues while tackling entrenched quality problems that have caused significant production delays and dissatisfaction among airline customers, federal regulators, and investors, The Wall Street Journal added.
華爾街日報補充道，卡爾霍恩的繼任者將需要應對這些問題，同時解決已經造成了重大生產延誤和航空公司客戶、聯邦監管機構和投資者不滿的根深蒂固的質量問題。
Discussions have included whether the next leader should be located near Boeing's Seattle-area manufacturing plants, which produce 737s and other aircraft.
討論中包括下一位領導者是否應該位於波音公司位於西雅圖地區的製造工廠附近，這裏生產737和其他飛機。
Boeing relocated its headquarters to Chicago in 2001 and announced plans in 2022 to move its main offices to Arlington, VA. The company operates a factory in South Carolina focused on producing 787s.
波音公司於2001年將總部遷至芝加哥，並於2022年宣佈計劃將主要辦公室遷至弗吉尼亞州阿靈頓。該公司在南卡羅來納州擁有一個專注於生產787的工廠。
The executive search is managed by Russell Reynolds Associates and Boeing's Chairman Steven Mollenkopf, formerly CEO of QUALCOMM.
執行搜尋工作的是Russell Reynolds Associates和波音公司董事長史蒂芬·莫倫科普夫，他曾擔任高通公司的CEO。
Discussions have included scenarios where Mollenkopf assumes the CEO role temporarily to facilitate a transition, particularly if an internal candidate like Pope is being considered for succession, The Wall Street Journal added.
華爾街日報稱，討論中包括莫倫科普夫臨時擔任首席執行官以便於過渡的方案，特別是如果內部候選人波普正在考慮繼任的話。
