Are the actions McNerney is proposing likely to improve ethics at Boeing?
If yes, explain why. If not, tell what actions McNerney could take that would be effective. While opinions may vary, it is possible that McNerney will succeed in improving ethics at Boeing. First of all, he is an outsider and hence is likely to have the objectivity that both Condit and Stonecipher lacked. Second, he is committed to change things at the company. He insists on openness and accountability and plans to change compensation practices to ensure adherence to ethics. Both in actions and words, McNerney has emphasized the need for change.
