Now that's the kind of Belstaff jacket I'd much prefer!

On that picture she really looks like a hands-on person.

For old men like me all younger women look "handsome"

 

[emax]

I first had 'handsome' in mind. But looking it up I found it didn't express what I mean.

But not worth to mention: She's a beauty.

Why don't you write Lynn an e-mail and ask her if she wants to exchange the jackets with you?

 

[Jean Mercier]

I first had 'handsome' in mind. But looking it up I found it didn't express what I mean.

But not worth to mention: She's a beauty.

Ah funny, "us" non-native English speaking people ... I looked up "my" word handsome too, to be sure it means what I thought, but I understood you "hands-on" very well!

 

[rovie]

Unfortunately, that's when you realise again that there are a bunch of white, wise men on the road here.
I think it's great that Lynn has been given the job of CEO.
I also like working with women in management on an equal footing. It's about time something changed in our society regarding gender segregation.
All the best Lynn for your new job!

"handsome" is an excellent choice!

 

[bemax]

"handsome" is an excellent choice!

I would like to rate the CEO of a company I will purchase a product from not from the appearance. But anyway there is a relation in my brain between attraction and positive ratings. Of course not only with women but obviously more so than with men.
I guess my brain is not the only one which works that way.

She is a professional business woman.
I don't even notice her sex or physical appearance.

I do but know that it doesn’t count!

 

[DaveB]

I do but know that it doesn’t count!

I only said that so I wouldn't be seen as sexist.
We have a saying in Australia
I wouldn't climb over her to get to you.
No idea what it means

 

[emax]

I don't even notice her sex or physical appearance.

Of course. And you never eat steaks or drink beer.

 

[Stu_Barnes]

On that picture she really looks like a hands-on person.

Now I’m assuming @emax that you’re being positive in that statement. As this lady is one of the few that with a flick of the corporate pen could keep your Grenadier in purgatory for as long as she wishes, also she’s got a team of lawyers behind her and I’d rather not have to deal with those suits

 

[Stu_Barnes]

As for a new ceo, as long as they continue to grow the company, improve the product and deliver the vehicles then I’m all in. I know nothing about Miss Calder but if she is the new CEO (has this been confirmed)then I wish to send my congratulations and I’m sure the anticipatory energy channeling from this forum alone will speed up vehicle deliveries.

 

[emax]

Now that's the kind of Belstaff jacket I'd much prefer!

That jacket has an MSRP of 595 Euros.

 

[Spjnr]

Dirk always seemed to me like Sir Jim's "go to guy" for captaining his new big projects. Like he was there to take the Grenadier vision to a reality.

My guess is he's now being reassigned to a new project that's in the pipeline, and Lyn Calder is going to be keeping the IA project on the straight and narrow from here on out. Hopefully she's up to the task, I'm sure she wouldn't have been put there if she wasnt!

He's updated his LinkedIn details to:

"Vice President of Engineering & Projects - INEOS Olefins & Polymers, Asia"

As well as a link to this press release:

"INEOS and SINOPEC sign Joint Venture agreement for a brand new petrochemicals complex in Tianjin, China.
Wednesday, December 7, 2022

INEOS Group
The agreement sees INEOS acquire a 50% share in the Tianjin Nangang Ethylene Project, which is currently under construction by SINOPEC and is expected to be on-stream by the end of 2023.
The cracker complex will include a 1.2 mtpa cracker, and 12 other derivative plants, including a 300ktpa ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) plant and a 500ktpa HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) plant using INEOS technology as announced in July. "

So he's off to supervise some new plant that's going to produce the raw materials for all the winch ropes...
