Volkswagen AG said Thursday that it has reduced its management
board to nine from twelve members after changing its chief
executive officer recently.
The German car maker said that, in addition to former CEO
Herbert Diess who has left the company, Hildegard Wortmann is
leaving the group's management board. Ms. Wortmann, a management
board member at the Audi brand, will continue to be responsible for
group sales.
In addition, Murat Aksel will continue to head group procurement
but also move from the management board of the car maker. Both are
joining an extended executive committee.
"In recent years, the Supervisory Board and the Board of
Management have set the right strategic course by moving in the
direction of electromobility and software. Now it's time to
implement the initiated measures with a streamlined Group
management," said Hans Dieter Poetsch, chairman of the supervisory
board of the auto maker.
The changes come as Porsche AG Chief Executive Oliver Blume
takes on the additional role of head of Volkswagen group as of
Thursday.
