It's possible for people to have highly functional blends of "book smart" and "street smart". There are a lot of highly qualified car enthusiasts who work for GM these days. I just don't think some guy on the internet is going to run GM better than the existing leadership. Sorry.

GM operates with spreadsheets and accountants. Don’t give me the BS that they have enthusiasts…… the enthusiasts they might have have a boss who prevents them from using their passions to their fullest extent.
Most if not all record companies around in 1958 would NOT have produced and released Ray Charles’ What’d I Say because it was too long and was too sexually charged for the era. Atlantic and Ahmet Ertegun said let’s do it - even though people advised him not to.
I remain firm in my position GM needs a John DeLorean as CEO. Not Mary Barra.
Take risks. Be bold. F—- trends - make your own and ignore the status quo. Heck that would be an AMAZING advertisement hook line for the new Pontiac!
