Philip Condit is a Retired chief executive officer and chairman of the board of The Boeing Company.

Phil Condit was born in Berkeley, California, and became an aviation enthusiast at an early age, earning his pilot's certificate at age 18. He earned a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from the University of California, Berkeley in 1963, a master's degree in aeronautical engineering from Princeton University in 1965, a Master's in Management from the Sloan Fellows program of the MIT Sloan School of Management in 1975, and a Ph.D. in engineering from the Science University of Tokyo.

Phil Condit joined the Boeing company in 1965 as an aerodynamics engineer, and worked on the since-cancelled Supersonic Transport program (SST). The same year he was awarded a patent for a flexible wing design called a "sailwing". In 1968 he became a lead engineer on the Boeing 747 high-speed configuration. He advanced into management within a year, then became manager of the Boeing 727 marketing in 1973.

In 1974 he entered the Sloan Fellows program at the MIT Sloan School of Management, where he completed his Master's degree in Management (M.B.A.) a year later. He returned to Boeing as manager of new program planning. He then advanced to director of program management for the 707/727/737 division in 1976, and 757 chief program engineer in 1978 then director of 757 engineering in 1981.

Dr. Condit continued his climb up the executive ladder, becoming vice president and general manager of the 757 division in 1983; vice president of the Renton division the same year, and vice president of sales and marketing for Boeing Commercial Aircraft Company (BCAC) in 1984. In 1986 he was named to executive vice president and general manager of BCAC, then executive VP and general manager of the 777 program division.

In 1996 he was elected president of Boeing, and a member of the board of directors. Finally, in 1997 he was elected chairman, completing his ascendancy to the leadership of the company. He was the seventh chairman since the company was founded. He remained in this position until resigning on 1 December 2003, followed by retirement in March 2004.

During his period as head of the company, the company made several mergers and acquisitions. The company acquired Rockwell Aerospace and Hughes Space & Communications, then performed a merger with the McDonnell Douglas company in 1997. However his tenure as head of the company was not viewed as being very successful. He underestimated the competitive threat posed by Airbus, and the company suffered from manufacturing and accounting problems.
