The Boeing Co. has named W. James McNerney Jr. its new chief executive, ending a three-month search by choosing a board member who had professed not to be a candidate for the job.
McNerney, 55, currently chief executive at 3M Corp., had long been rumored as the strongest outside candidate to lead Boeing.
McNerney, who has been on Boeing’s board since 2001, ran General Electric’s jet-engine business before his current role at 3M.
