I've just finished Joe Astons book, The Chairmans Lounge. As regular reader of his column in AFR I was looking for to his book on Qantas, Alan Joyce, and the other executives.
The book did not disappoint and whilst I thought I knew a lot about Qantas, there were plenty of surprises. I won't share any here so as not to spoil it.
Definitely worth a read (or listen on audio book).
I'm not sure I'm rushing out to buy it. JA has had a major burr up his a**e for decades about most of corporate Australia. Yes, he's no doubt raised some legit questions about the relationship between Qantas and enterprise/Government - but I can't help but feel this is a personal crusade/vendetta
