Matthias Müller
The contract of the Volkswagen CEO will run until 2020.
The VolkswagenTop management must, in the opinion of the CEO Matthias Müller Become “more feminine, younger and more international”. “This is a huge problem for the group,” he told the news magazine “Der Spiegel”. In determining his successor, the 64-year-old wants to have a say in the matter. “In any case, I would like to discuss with the Supervisory Board how the Group should be managed according to my time and by whom,” emphasized Müller. He himself can imagine, after his departure from the top of the board a post in the VWTake over the supervisory board. However, he does not aim for his chairmanship. “That’s too much work if you do it right,” Müller said.
He had been set by the owner families Piech and Porsche in September 2015 to the VW top, after the then CEO Martin Winterkorn had to resign in the wake of the diesel affair. Already then let Mueller recognize that he reluctantly left the cherished post as Porsche boss and at Volkswagen is only available for one term. His contract runs until 2020. Müller is to promote the elucidation of the millionfold manipulation of exhaust emissions and at the same time lead the group into the age of electric mobility. He can show first successes. The long-weakening VW brand comes under the former BMWManager Herbert Diess ahead in increasing profitability.
When asked if the 59-year-old Diess could be his successor, Müller told the magazine: “Of course, one is not old at 60. We need experience on the board, but in my opinion also a rejuvenation. “In the end, that was a decision of the supervisory board.
