Dreamliner-induced nightmares

Biggest challenge: Monitoring the financial progress of the 787 Dreamliner, whose delivery has been delayed twice due to production snafus.

A little more than a year into his new job, Mr. Bell was appointed interim CEO following the resignation of Harry Stonecipher in what was the second major ethics scandal to hit Boeing in as many years.

Rather than shaking his confidence in his employer, Mr. Bell says he saw his four-month appointment "as a vote of confidence in the whole Boeing team and a recognition of the key strategic role today's CFOs play in helping run the business."

Now back at his original post, Mr. Bell is again focused on overseeing the finances of the world's biggest aerospace company and reporting to investors.

He's also focused on taking care of his current boss, Boeing Chairman and CEO James McNerney Jr.


Top Chicago ad exec Paul Tilley, 40, dies apparently of suicide

As the top creative executive at advertising agency DDB's Chicago office, Paul L. Tilley oversaw commercials and campaigns for marquee clients such as Budweiser and McDonald's.

Mr. Tilley was named managing director of creative at DDB in September 2006, nine years after he joined the shop. Over those years, he led creative teams that came up with Dell's "Dude, You're Gettin' a Dell" campaign and advertising in McDonald's "I'm Lovin' It" effort.

Mr. Tilley, 40, died on Friday, Feb. 22. The Wilmette resident apparently jumped from an upper floor of the Fairmont Chicago Hotel Friday, and his death was ruled a suicide by the Cook County medical examiner's office.
