In Europe, even a motorcycle manufacturer's personnel strategy carries a kind of political message. KTM repeatedly poaching executives from BMW isn't mere corporate hiring, it signals a shift in industry-wide power dynamics. In Europe, a corporate turnaround process ripples across the whole market.

Get that personnel changes alone won't fix things, but at least they're showing willingness to act.
