Lotus: change at the top
Just 18 months into the job, Kim Ogaard-Nielsen has left his post as CEO of Group Lotus plc to 'pursue his other entrepreneurial interests'. He's replaced on an 'acting' basis by Mike Kimberley, who has a long-standing relationship with Lotus - he joined the company in 1969 during the Colin Chapman era and was CEO from 1983 to 1991.
