瓦格纳的离职信

上周五我在华盛顿会晤美国政府官员时，他们希望我放弃通用汽车公司CEO这一职务，我表示同意。

对于未来的通用汽车公司而言，弗里茨韩德胜是一个很好的首席执行官人选。就我多年来与他共事的经验来看，弗里茨是一个理想的人选，可以领导公司完成重组，获得新生。

他有关全球性行业的知识、他的智慧、精力，可以支持通用公司在全世界获得成功。我祝愿他，并且随时准备以一切可能的方式支持他，以及临时非执行主席肯特克雷萨。

我也想对所有在我任职期间对通用汽车以及我本人给予过无私帮助和支持的人表示感谢。感谢我们优秀的管理团队；感谢我们的众多合作伙伴，包括我们了不起的经销商，供应商和组织领袖。我同样很感激公司工会的领导人，我们曾经密切合作，计划并实施了许多艰难的，而且是必要的重组协议。

最重要的是，我想对通用汽车公司的所有全球员工表达我最深切的感激。你们在过去的表现使我感到非常自豪，我将永远感谢你们在过去几年中，面对公司前所未有的挑战时表现出的勇气。通用汽车是一个伟大的公司，拥有传奇的历史。同样这个公司将拥有一个伟大的未来。

GM Message from Rick Wagoner

On Friday I was in Washington for a meeting with AdMINIstration officials.  In the course of that meeting, they requested that I “step aside” as CEO of GM, and so I have.

Fritz Henderson is an excellent choice to be the next CEO of GM.  Having worked closely with Fritz for many years, I know that he is the ideal person to lead the company through the completion of our restructuring efforts.  His knowledge of the global industry and the company are exceptional, and he has the intellect, energy, and support among GM’ers worldwide to succeed.  I wish him well, and I stand ready to support him, and interim Non-Executive Chairman Kent Kresa, in every way possible.  

I also want to extend my sincerest thanks to everyone who supported GM and me during my time as CEO.  I deeply appreciate the excellent counsel and commitment of the GM Board and the strong support of our many partners including our terrific dealers, suppliers, and community leaders. I am grateful as well to the union leaders with whom I have had the chance to work closely to implement numerous tough but necessary restructuring agreements.  

Most important of all I want to express my deepest appreciation to the extraordinary team of GM employees around the world.  You have been a tremendous source of inspiration and pride to me, and I will be forever grateful for the courage and commitment you have shown as we have confronted the unprecedented challenges of the past few years.  GM is a great company with a storied history.  Ignore the doubters because I know it is also a company with a great future.
