Video blog: Matthias Schoenberg speaks!

May 27, 2011

Matthias Schoenberg (the German spelling is Schönberg) is leaving Continental Tire the Americas LLC after a successful almost five-run as its CEO. How successful was it?

Modern Tire Dealer Editor Bob Ulrich asked him in an exclusive video interview on May 12, 2011, in Mount Vernon, Ill. To check out the video, click here to watch “What has Schoenberg done?”

His parting words show a sense of pride and teamwork in everything he has helped accomplish since 2006 -- from new product introductions (and there were a lot of them) to capacity increases in Mount Vernon, Ill.
