6. 鮑伯?斯坦普爾

通用汽車公司CEO

1990－1992年

??? 斯坦普爾是一位忠誠的戰(zhàn)士,，直到一場大衰退幾乎把通用汽車逼到破產邊緣,，他才糾正了史密斯犯下的錯誤。最后,，當他制定了改組計劃,，準備付諸實施時卻又猶豫了。在此期間,，董事會對他失去信心,，導致他和他的領導團隊在一場歷史性政變中集體下臺。17年后,，通用汽車才在聯(lián)邦政府的幫助下進行了調整,，控制住了費用。

6. Bob Stempel

CEO, General Motors

1990-1992

??? Stempel was the loyal soldier who couldn't bring himself to undo Smith's mistakes until a deep recession pushed GM close to the financial brink. When he finally produced a restructuring plan, Stempel dithered on actually executing it. In the process, he lost the confidence of the board of directors, who pushed him and his leadership team out in an historic coup. It would be another 17 years before GM resized itself and got its costs under control with the help of the federal government.
