it has not crashed at VW for a long time: in Front of other managers, the chief puts the integrity of the Supervisory Board in question, and accuses inspectors offences. Is the loss of the brand management of the price, the Diess? Other conflicts with the swing.

Wolfsburg (dpa) - The nerves in Wolfsburg. Once again. But currently, as clearly as, perhaps since the beginning of the "diesel's gate" almost five years ago, not more.

VW group boss Herbert Diess is the leadership of the main brand in the largest car group in the world. Voluntarily and at his / her discretion, or he has to give you? It is a last warning to the offensive and dashing occurring Manager, after in the past few months, the problems and communication accumulated margins? Official presentation: This should get "more free space" for strategic tasks. Unofficial reading of so many: He could still be glad to at least get to the group as a whole more taxes.

In the case of Volkswagen, they are power struggles, conflicts of Interest and other disputes, almost already accustomed to - to the chagrin of the employees see your company in a bad light. Now, however, the top Manager has spanned in a dispute over the responsibility for any errors in the bow perhaps.

in Front of more than 3000 managers Diess defendant in a video conference on the piercing of sensitive information to the difficulties with which the manufacturer has.

The first, as abwiegelnd perceived communication around a racist Internet advertising video. And the question is whether in such a situation Diess' alleged desire for an early contract extension as appropriate.

"They are also a sign of a lack of integrity and Compliance. These are crimes that can happen in the Supervisory Board, the Presidium and, apparently, associated with it." You have to be careful not to "that of the Supervisory Board, which is our ultimate body, it weakens the principle of us because in this Position". The sat. However, not only the other managers, but also with the so-operation of the public inspectors criticised.

A group spokesman said it was This' intention to use the own tire on the rather suit. In the closest circle of power inspector, Hans Dieter Pötsch, representatives of the Porsche and Piëch families, lower Saxony's Prime Minister Stephan Weil (SPD), IG-metal-Chef Jörg Hofmann and high councils to sit next to the Chief.

In connection with the difficult Golf-8-start-up - the Diess in social networks is a great success, what triggers to shake the bands of partially head - ignited the conflict of the new.

by now, the Manager, previously head of the group and its core brand in a personal Union, is likely to be in for a tricky test. He had excused his Remarks as "inappropriate and wrong", was called it from the control panel.
