The shakeup of management at the Boeing Co., which began in 2019 after the crash of two 737 Max airliners, continues as the novel coronavirus forces the company to “streamline senior leadership.” That includes combining its legal and compliance departments.

The recently announced changes include naming general counsel Brett Gerry as chief legal officer and executive vice president of global compliance. Gerry, who previously served as president of Boeing Japan, has been general counsel for about a year.
