“Her immediate action program at the beginning of the war in Ukraine played a key role in significantly minimizing the economic damage caused by the six-week production stop for our trucks. She is providing important impetus both in the ongoing transformation of MAN and with her cash initiative, among others. I would like to thank her and her team for their achievements to date and look forward to working with her in the future”, commented MAN CEO, Alexander Vlaskamp.
