Ford Motor Co. Chief Executive Officer Alan Mulally will stay at the automaker through 2014, Director Edsel Ford II said today, reiterating the company’s timetable. Mulally said he loves serving the automaker.
Mulally, considered one of the leading candidates to take the CEO job at Microsoft Corp. when Steve Ballmer steps down, said in a Bloomberg Television interview that he preferred to talk about the sporty new Mustang, rather than the software company or his commitment to stay at Ford through next year. “There is no change to the plan,” he said. He didn’t address the timing when asked about Edsel Ford’s comments.
