CAL chairman: All hands must be on deck

IF PRIME Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar’s mandate for Caribbean Airlines (CAL) to be turned around within two years, all hands must be on deck, CAL chairman Reyna Kowlessar says, while expressing confidence the PM’s demand will be met.

At the Chamber of Industry and Commerce’s Champions of Business ceremony at the Hyatt Regency, Port of Spain on November 13, where the airline copped the Internationally known, TT owned business of the year award, Kowlessar told reporters the company will undergo a full audit, engage in upskilling and promoting employees and conduct interviews to fill roles left vacant after recent resignations.

“It is about teamwork, it’s about having all hands on deck. Leadership is not about position, it is about progress, and we are here to work twice as hard with the entire team. We will get there and we are taking that mandate very seriously,” she said.
