The Lufthansa Supervisory Board decided on Wednesday that the contracts with Executive Board members Christina Foerster and Michael Niggemann would be extended by five years until December 31, 2027.
At the same time, changes in the areas of responsibility within the Management Board were decided. These will take effect on July 1, 2022. From the summer, Michael Niggemann will also take over the area of infrastructure and system partners. In the future, Detlef Kayser will also be responsible for IT & Cyber Security and Purchasing, and Christina Foerster will be in charge of Employer Branding & Talent Management. The management of the worldwide stations of the Lufthansa Group Airlines will in future be assigned to Harry Hohmeister's area of responsibility.
“I am delighted that Christina Foerster and Michael Niggemann will continue their successful work on the Board. With their great expertise and proven skills, they make an important contribution to the successful transformation of Lufthansa. The contract extensions are also an important sign of continuity in these challenging times," said Karl-Ludwig Kley, President of the Supervisory Board.
