Why GE removed John Flannery as CEO after little more than a yearGeneral Electric's board of directors removed John Flannery as CEO due to frustration with the pace of his turnaround plan for the embattled industrial conglomerate, sources familiar with the situation told CNBC. Uh just spitballing here, but maybe because GE fell off the Dow for the first time in 110 years? Oh please billionaire's at CNBC give advice to Elon Musk lmao, what are you going to suggest? that he waist his life typing crap for mouse clicks? Idiots Although Flannery is a brilliant guy he was still an insider giving GE the sameness it didn’t need. CEO material? sure but not for GE.Bringing Culp an outsider to look at GE situation w/a completely fresh set of eyes is what ge currently needs.
