Who? Why, none other than Air Canada CEO Calin Rovinescu.
“The pleasing part is that the marketplace is giving the company credit for the transformational events that have occurred.”
“As a result of our focus on our corporate priorities, being cost transformation, international growth, customer engagement, and culture change, we’ve seen an important improvement in virtually every metric by which a company is measured.”
“There’s no question that success breeds success.”

Also:
“It takes a great entrepreneur to start a business with a clean sheet of paper, but it takes enormous entrepreneurial talent to convert a 75-year-old company into something that is entrepreneurial,” says Rovinescu. And yes, he’s talking about himself.
