Dr. Brendan Nelson, President of Boeing Global, is set to provide an exclusive insight into leadership at the highest levels during a breakfast address on August 22nd. The former Australian Defence Minister, ambassador, and director of the Australian War Memorial will share his unique perspective on guiding one of the world's largest aerospace companies.
Boeing, known for its iconic aircraft such as the 747, 777, and 787 models, also manufactures Australia's F-18 fighters, C-17 transports, Wedgetail radar platforms, Chinook helicopters, Harpoon cruise missiles, and P8 Poseidon naval patrol aircraft. Internationally, Boeing produces the F-15 Eagle fighter jets, launch rockets and spacecraft for the International Space Station, commercial and military satellites, attack helicopters, KC-16 aerial tankers, missile defense systems, and autonomous drones.
Boeing's presence in Australia is its largest outside the United States with seven wholly-owned subsidiaries employing around 3,000 people across 38 locations nationwide. The company has invested over US$800 million in Australia and generates approximately US$400 million in export revenue annually.
