Article Abstract:
Ford Motor Co, General Motors Corp and DaimlerChrysler executives are not only changing temas with abandon, the Big Three automakers are freely targeting one another's best players. Top managers have become increasingly mobile which reverses a long-held auto industry tenet that it was better to cultivate one's own managers in one's own unique culture. Recruiting from within Detroit, MI, has one major benefit though. The talent does not have to be cajoled into moving to a city with one of the worst images in the country.
