Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun announced on Monday that he will be stepping down from his position at the end of the year. This decision comes as the planemaker has been under increased scrutiny following the Alaska Airlines blowout incident on January 5.
The restructuring of Boeing's top management also includes the resignation of Larry Kellner, the chairman of the board, and Stan Deal, the CEO of the commercial airplanes division. Deal officially retired from the company on Monday and will be succeeded by Stephanie Pope, who currently serves as the chief operating officer.
