Etihad refocuses on strategy in post-Hogan era
Since Etihad Airways’ former CE, James Hogan, stepped down in July, the airline is refocusing on its operations strategy. CE Peter Baumgartner said: “It was a good opportunity for Etihad Airways to take stock and reflect on the future in the next 5 years very concretely and the next 10 years in a solitary direction.” Reflecting on the strategy, he said: “First of all, it was not an overnight departure of James Hogan. There was an introduction of a group structure already [in place] at the beginning of last year. And it was a carefully planned succession which happened earlier this year with a lot of continuity. So the reflection about the future has not been triggered by the departure of Hogan but by us being at this stage of a development, where many of the planning parameters from that time and strategic decisions that had been taken have changed.” <br/>
