Three more years for Daimler CEO Zetsche – FAZ – Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

STUTTGART (AFX) – Still less than three years should lt to Daimler CEO &; DAI.ETR & gt; Dieter Zetsche come. Next Tuesday (February 16th), the Supervisory Board decides on the extension of the contract, the superintendent Manfred Bischoff had already announced at the AGM last April. It is “the absolute intention of the Supervisory Board” to extend Zetsche’s contract until 2019, he announced at that time. The latter was a few weeks later hinted that he would accept the offer. The good figures for 2015 in any case likely to have hardly given to the Supervisory Board reason to depart from its direction.

In addition to Zetsche’s contract should also be a change in the Board on the program. The previous CSO Ola Källenius should board take over the management of the development from 61 years old Thomas Weber, who is leaving at the end on grounds of age, such as the “Handelsblatt” reported recently. A Daimler spokesman declined to comment on the report. Weber is this year 62, which is considered at Daimler “as guidance” for the departure from the board. In case Zetsche this rule seems to be overridden apparently. He is on May 5, 63 years old.

The 46-year-old Källenius any case reduces the average age of the board significantly. He at least since his appointment to the board as a possible successor to Dieter Zetsche. Born in Sweden is considerably younger than his fellow board members Wolfgang Bernhard (55), Troska (55) and Bodo Uebber (56), which have also been touted as a potential successor to Zetsche.

Källenius responsible before his sales post for Daimler’s car business the tuning division AMG. A career move he has in common with Bernhard and Troska. but Källenius successor is the “Handelsblatt” According to still offen./ang/DP/zb
