OFFICE: AIR: Resignation of Norm Thompson
Air New Zealand announces that Norm Thompson, the company's Deputy Chief
Executive Officer and acting Group General Manager International Airline, is
to retire on 30 June 2013.
Chief Executive Officer Rob Fyfe commented:
"During my career I have had the privilege to work with many world class
executives and leaders. None have exhibited the level of passion, commitment
and knowledge relevant to their industry that I have seen from Norm since I
joined Air New Zealand.
I have immensely valued his insights, perspectives and support during my
tenure as Chief Executive Officer. He has enabled me to lead the business in
the way I felt important by picking up on my behalf a multitude of key
projects and international stakeholder relationships, especially within the
Star Alliance and with other partners like government, tourism bodies,
airports and air service providers.
Few Air New Zealanders have made as significant a contribution to our airline
and the nation's tourism industry as Norm has over the past 44 years. He is a
world class senior executive and has been critical to shaping the multi
award-winning airline we enjoy working in today."
