7. 领导力

卡洛斯•戈恩将奥迪美国公司（Audi of America）的资深高管约翰•德•尼琛（见上图）招致麾下，以期重振英菲尼迪。德•尼琛一来就四处揽才，先后请来了法国、德国、西班牙和澳大利亚的高管，组成了一个迷你联合国。英菲尼迪美国公司的主管8月初也宣告下台，由一位保时捷的高管接任。

福特首席执行官艾伦•穆拉利对全球营销总管吉姆•法雷寄予了更大程度的信任，将林肯的掌控权也交给了他，为他宽泛的职能范围又添上了一副重担。林肯广告公司的主管今年四月换了人，而公司现任公关主管已是过去两年里第四位走马上任的人选了。

优势方：英菲尼迪  

7. Leadership

Carlos Ghosn recruited Audi of America veteran Johan de Nysschen (above) to revive Infiniti. De Nysschen has been creating a mini United Nations by adding French, German, Spanish, and Australian executives. Infiniti's longtime head of U.S. operations stepped down earlier this month and was replaced by a Porsche executive.

Ford CEO Alan Mulally put further faith in global marketing boss Jim Farley by adding responsibilities for Lincoln to his extensive portfolio. The head of Lincoln's ad agency was replaced in April, and Lincoln's current public relations chief is the fourth to hold that job in the past two years.

Advantage: Infiniti
