The son of a Swiss banker who shuttled between Wall Street and Zurich, Lutz showed little ambition as a teenager. He didn't graduate from high school until he was 22. It took a stint in the Marines and a hard push from his father to develop the discipline that led to a successful international career in the car industry. He was chair of Ford in Europe and a top official at General Motors and BMW before going to Chrysler. Lutz also knows disappointment: Bob Eaton--not Lutz--replaced Lee Iacocca as CEO of Chrysler in 1992. Yet, instead of pouting in defeat, Lutz stuck with the company. He retired earlier this year, proud of his role in Chrysler's merger with Germany's Daimler-Benz. Guts is a lively business-management book. It's the story of one man's passion for automobiles--and how he jump-started a giant company that makes them. --Dan Ring --Ce texte fait référence à une édition épuisée ou non disponible de ce titre.
