Doug Steenland – Fearless Leader

August 17, 2007 2 Comments

You may find this amusing or you may find it sickening. CEO Doug Steenland is so out of touch with what is going on at his airline. He was interviewed on the Today show on August 15th, 2007.  This summer he blamed “high pilot absenteeism” for the record number of cancelled flights not poor management decisions. See this article in the Star Tribune.

    Imagine that, an Airline CEO who blames his employees for the companies woes! I’ve been with my Airline for 24 years, and each time I think to myself that it can’t get any worse, it does. It is a good thing for the Company that Aviation is so addicting in and of itself, because anyone who would work for an airline today based solely on pay and benefits would be a fool.

    Aviation Junkie,
