GM China president Socia retires after year on the job, Tsien ascends

Last year General Motors not only sold more vehicles in China than it did in any other market, it also sold more vehicles in China than any other automaker. The company's Chinese operations were until now the responsibility of Bob Socia (pictured above at right), but after just a year on the job, Socia is already stepping aside and into retirement. In his place, the company has announced the promotion of Matt Tsien (above, left) to the presidency of General Motors China. Tsien has until now served as a vice president at GM China, responsible for planning, program management, consolidated international operations and strategic alliances.
