When a patriarch steps down, intrigues and power tussles often begin. Apparently this also happened in the case of the Hubert Burda Media group after the publisher Hubert Burda withdrew. Now the company’s top manager, Martin Weiss, has to vacate his post. According to SZ information, he has antagonized the board of directors, which, in addition to the owners Hubert Burda, Jacob Burda and Elisabeth Furtwängler, also includes former board member Andreas Rittstieg and Weiss’ direct predecessor Paul-Bernhard Kallen. They had already decided before Christmas that Weiss’ time as CEO would end.
