Ed Whitace Serves Interim GM CEO Position

On December 1st, Fritz Henderson resigned as CEO of GM. Ed Whitacre, former CEO of AT&T and chairman of GM, will take an interim position as CEO until a replacement is found. Whitacre said that a new, permanent, CEO is actively been sought out. Henderson's resignation did not come as a surprise as Henderson and the board of directors did not agree on certain key issues. Also the government's Automotive Task Force was not fond of Henderson as well, with Henderson being a career GM employee.
