a great entrepreneur goes into her well-deserved retirement at the age of 81. Maria-Elisabeth Schaeffler-Thumann leaves behind a German group that is in excellent financial shape. You couldn't have expected that in 2008, when Schaeffler took over Continental and took over itself in the process. Olaf Scholz refused her state aid because she was wearing a mink coat. In the end she didn't need it. The woman, who actually wanted to become a doctor, managed to overcome her greatest crisis with the courage to break new ground and with virtues such as tireless diligence and iron discipline. I bow my head and wish her all the best!
Sunny days yours
