后政府救助時(shí)代堅(jiān)守陣地的5位CEO
?????丹?阿克森 ????任職公司:通用汽車 ????如果沒(méi)有Facebook,“史上最大規(guī)模首次公開(kāi)募股”的名號(hào)應(yīng)該屬于通用汽車(General Motors)。2010年,受美國(guó)聯(lián)邦政府的邀請(qǐng),丹?阿克森接替愛(ài)德華?惠特克,成為通用汽車CEO,之后他便帶領(lǐng)公司完成了規(guī)模巨大的IPO。 ????從數(shù)字上來(lái)看,通用汽車的表現(xiàn)堪稱完美:2011年,公司公布的利潤(rùn)達(dá)到了創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的92億美元,比2010年增加了約50%,鑒于公司在2009年還曾申請(qǐng)破產(chǎn),取得這樣的成績(jī)實(shí)屬不易。此外,今年五月是自2009年舊車換現(xiàn)金計(jì)劃(Cash for Clunkers)以來(lái)通用汽車史上銷售最火爆的月份。 ????不過(guò),雖然公司表現(xiàn)穩(wěn)健,但政府仍然擁有它約四分之一的股份,阿克森在接受《財(cái)富》雜志采訪時(shí)表示,他并不確定美國(guó)政府什么時(shí)候才會(huì)全部賣掉在通用汽車持有的股份。未來(lái)幾年,通用汽車將面臨與其他直接競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手相同的問(wèn)題:在全球經(jīng)濟(jì)增速放緩的情況下如何將汽車賣給正在苦苦掙扎的普通消費(fèi)者。 |
????Dan Akerson ????Company: General Motors ????Until Facebook overshadowed GM, the automaker could claim the biggest initial public offering in history. CEO Dan Akerson guided GM through its massive IPO, after the federal government asked him to take the reins from Ed Whitacre in 2010. ????Some of GM's numbers look great: in 2011, the company posted a record profit of $9.2 billion, up by almost 50% from 2010, which is even more impressive given the company filed for bankruptcy in 2009. Besides, this past May was the best sales month for GM since the 2009 Cash for Clunkers program. ????Despite its solid performance, the government still owns about a quarter of the company, and in a conversation with Fortune, Akerson said he wasn't quite sure when the government would fully sell off its stake. In the coming years, GM will face the same problem as its immediate competitors: how to sell automobiles to consumers struggling amid slow global economic growth. |
