Philip M. Condit, President, The Boeing CompanyWhen their largest customers asked Boeing to match the innovations being offered by the European Airbus Consortium, Philip M. Condit went a step further. The Boeing 777 represented a fundamental rethinking of their product-and a revolution in the very way Boeing designed, tooled, and built airplanes. Philip Condit explains the new gospel of concurrent engineering at Boeing: "Teaming," an approach that integrates people and functions that once operated in isolation, one that has enabled Boeing to stay on top in one of the world's most competitive industries. |
