General Motors
Detroit— General Motors Co. CEO Daniel Akerson arrived at the Renaissance Center on Thursday evening to the applause and cheers of several hundred employees gathered in the lobby and balconies of the GM headquarters building to celebrate its stock launch.
He wanted to deliver his personal thanks to the workers for helping the company "achieve the impossible dream" of traveling from bankruptcy to the New York Stock Exchange in less than a year and a half.
