中新网旧金山7月31日电 美国波音公司当地时间31日宣布，曾在罗克韦尔柯林斯公司担任总裁兼首席执行官的凯利·奥特伯格将出任波音总裁兼首席执行官。
波音公司董事会已推选奥特伯格为公司新任总裁兼首席执行官，这一任命将于2024年8月8日起生效。奥特伯格还将成为公司董事会成员。
现年64岁的奥特伯格1983年开始在得州仪器公司担任工程师，1987年出任罗克韦尔柯林斯公司项目经理，并于2013年成为公司总裁兼首席执行官。罗克韦尔柯林斯公司为飞机制造电子系统和其它设备，是波音和空客的主要供应商之一。
奥特伯格在罗克韦尔柯林斯公司的任职期间，该公司产品出现在737 Max等型号飞机上。2018年底，罗克韦尔柯林斯被联合技术公司收购，奥特伯格在新公司担任高级职务。2020年初，联合技术公司与雷神公司合并，成为雷神技术公司。奥特伯格于2021年从该公司退休。
今年以来，波音客机接连发生内嵌式应急门脱落、引擎起火、轮胎掉落、冲出跑道以及机翼受损等事故，这给波音公司带来了巨大的压力。2024年3月25日，波音首席执行官戴夫·卡尔霍恩宣布，其将于当年年底卸任。卡尔霍恩表示，辞职决定完全是自己作出的，并将继续担任波音董事会特别顾问至2025年3月。
波音公司报告称，公司第二季度净亏损14.4亿美元，而去年同期净亏损为1.49亿美元。
随着新任首席执行官的任命，波音公司将迎来新的领导团队，希望新领导层能够带领公司走出困境，重获市场的信任和信心。

BEIJING, July 31 (Xinhua) — Boeing Co. announced on July 31 that Kelly Ogle, who served as the president and chief executive officer of Rockwell Collins, will take over as president and chief executive officer of Boeing.
The Boeing Co. board has elected Ogle as the company’s new president and chief executive officer, with the appointment taking effect on August 8, 2024. Ogle will also serve on the company’s board of directors.
At 64 years old, Ogle began his career in 1983 as an engineer at Texas Instruments and was promoted to project manager at Rockwell Collins in 1987. He became the company’s president and chief executive officer in 2013. Rockwell Collins manufactures electronic systems and other equipment for aircraft, making it one of Boeing’s and Airbus’s major suppliers.
During his tenure at Rockwell Collins, Ogle’s products appeared on models such as the 737 Max. In late 2018, Rockwell Collins was acquired by United Technologies Corporation, and Ogle took on a senior position in the new company. In early 2020, United Technologies merged with Raytheon Company to form Raytheon Technologies Corp. Ogle retired from the company in 2021.
This year, Boeing aircraft have suffered incidents including emergency doors detaching, engine fires, tire blowouts, runway excursions, and wing damage, putting immense pressure on the company. On March 25, 2024, Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun announced that he would step down by the end of the year. Calhoun stated that his decision to resign was entirely his own and that he would continue to serve as a special advisor to the Boeing board until March 2025.
Boeing reported a net loss of $144 million for the second quarter, compared to a net loss of $149 million in the same period last year.
With the appointment of the new chief executive officer, Boeing is set to welcome a new leadership team, with hopes that the new leadership will lead the company out of its difficulties and restore market trust and confidence.
