Doesn't sound like he's jumping ship, but rather exploring other options, or opportunities. Change is good regardless, GM needs it. chiefpontiac 05-03-2007, 08:39 PM I agree. To move outside the entire industry at 44 sounds like he never really found his niche in autos. And surely GM has to be topheavy with management anyway. carsuperfreak 05-04-2007, 06:59 AM I agree.

Especially with all the baby-boomers now right around that 'management' age chiefpontiac 05-04-2007, 09:23 AM I'm sure that's the case. Especially with all the baby-boomers now right around that 'management' age And with guys like Bob Lutz hanging around well past normal retirement age, it probably restricts to some extent vertical movement. Now I am all in favor of the best and brightest continuing as long as they have that fire and passion as Bob does, but how does a guy at 44 see himself moving to the top when many of the team 20 years his senior have no plans of stepping aside anytime soon. | ||
