GM's Akerson says female CEO at Detroit automaker 'inevitable'

Running a Detroit auto company won't be a good ol' boys club forever, at least according to the Chairman of General Motors, Dan Akerson. Speaking at the 2013 Michigan Automotive Summit this week, Akerson said that a female CEO was "inevitable," with some sources suggesting the comment may have been a reference to Mary Barra, GM's Senior Vice President of Global Product Development, one of the executives tipped to be in the running to succeed Akerson when he retires. "You'll have more women in boardrooms and more women in senior management 10 years from now, at least I hope so," the Chairman said.
