VW MANAGEMENT RESTRUCTURE
RECONSTRUCTING VOLKSWAGEN’S MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE
1. CEO Winterkorn resigns , Matthias Mueller appointed as the CEO of the VW
Group
2. Restructuring of the Board
3. Commissioned Jones Day- A U.S Based law firm from October 1st, 2015 to carry
out Investigation on Scandal
4. Limited Max Compensation of top executives and other executives : Taken
together, the reductions reflect a cut of up to 40% from the previous maximum
compensation, although minimum salary was increased by up to 30%.
VISION 2025
Volkswagen Embraces EVs So You’ll Forget Dieselgate
The “Strategy 2025” announced by
the new CEO was also a symbolic rite
of passage for him to make his mark
on the heels of the last CEO Martin
Winterkorn’s “Strategy 2018.” That
strategy was to become the global
market leader and in qualified terms
it met those goals.
Investment : $ 20 billions for mass-
production of EVs
VW Takes Global Sales Crown From Toyota
But Europe has always been a Game-changer
USA had always been a long running disaster
