Goodyear shifts Americas leadership to Latin America chief on an interim basis.

The company states that Ryan Waldron, President, Americas, has left, and that Marcelo Toscani, President, Latin America, will lead the Americas business unit on an interim basis. This keeps oversight within the existing senior team, which can support continuity across the Americas region.
