Nissan Motor Co. has reassigned Hari Nada, a lawyer and senior vice president who last year called attention to alleged misconduct by then-Chairman Carlos Ghosn.
Nada (pictured) will now serve as a senior advisor overseeing special projects and report to acting CEO Yasuhiro Yamauchi. Yesterday Nissan’s board nominated 16-year veteran Makoto Uchida to take over as permanent CEO, pending shareholder approval.
Nissan says it reassigned Nada to avoid suspicion that he himself might be involved in a new scandal relating to an executive compensation scheme that contributed to the resignation of CEO Hiroto Saikawa last month.
An internal investigation found no evidence of wrongdoing by Nada, according to the company. It says the new assignment will enable to focus on forthcoming legal action against Ghosn, whose trial is scheduled to begin next spring.

Shifting Landscape of Technology Is a Never-Ending Education
Brent Donaldson, Senior Editor, Modern Machine Shop and Additive Manufacturing Magazine discusses how the shifting landscape of technology that all of Gardner’s writers and editors cover is a never-ending education. If we are truly doing our jobs, we will never feel like we’ve mastered them. As I continue writing and reporting for AM and MMS, it’s easy to imagine how these technologies’ interdependency will continue to grow. It also seems clear that this kind of reporting — the kind that requires editors to experience and share new manufacturing technologies and strategies — is the kind of reporting that only Gardner can produce with any depth. I’m grateful to be part of it.
