At its meeting on 25 September, the Supervisory Board of STIHL AG agreed to the request of Sarah Gewert to terminate her contract early by mutual consent.

He brings decades of experience in this field and is recognized as a leading expert on the North American market, a region of great importance to STIHL.

‘With Sarah Gewert, we are losing a proven expert in the field of marketing and sales.  Ms. Gewert has achieved a great deal over the last ten years. She has renewed our brand identity, created our wonderful ‘brand world in Waiblingen and brought STIHL's omni-channel strategy to life. On behalf of the company and the Stihl family, I would like to sincerely thank her for her tremendous commitment and significant contributions to the development of STIHL’ emphasizes Dr Nikolas Stihl, Chairman of the Advisory and Supervisory Board of STIHL.

The Cologne-born economist began her professional career at STIHL in 2014 as Head of Marketing Communications.
