PARIS/MONTREAL, QUEBEC/NEW YORK ¨C Beleaguered Boeing Co. is putting its future in the hands of a turnaround veteran who has led several companies in crisis, cut his teeth at engine maker General Electric Co. and has spent a decade on the board of the world¡¯s largest plane-maker.
Newly appointed Chief Executive David Calhoun, 62, was made Boeing¡¯s chairman two months ago in the midst of the crisis that has rocked the company since airliner disasters in Indonesia and Ethiopia led to the grounding of its best-selling 737 Max.
This isn¡¯t his first taste of corporate upheaval.
