Chris Kubasik loses his job

Back in 2009, I blogged about a high school friend, Chris Kubasik, becoming the President and COO of Lockheed Martin.  Pretty impressive for a 48 year old.  Recently, the Lockheed Martin board decided that he shouldn't hold those jobs any more.

Embarrassing?  Might have been except they promoted him to CEO, effective January 1, 2013.  Running over $46B in revenue seems like a bit of responsibility.

The competition for most successful in our graduating class continues. To the best of my knowledge, it's Chris versus John Hesterman, who is now a 3-star Air Force General.

Still think he is awesome?

He definitely drops quite a few points on integrity and good sense. Quite the bummer.
