General Motors Co. has named Susan Docherty its new vice president of U.S. sales, replacing Mark LaNeve, the Automotive News reported.
LaNeve, 50, is resigning effective Oct. 15 to accept a job outside the auto industry, the trade paper said. Docherty, 46, is currently general manager of Buick-GMC. That job will remain open for the time being, the Automotive News reported.

There she oversaw sales, service, distribution, marketing and parts for more than 1,000 dealers in 16 states, the publication reported.
A native of Canada, Docherty ran Hummer before heading up GM’s Western Region, the paper said. Docherty assumes the new post on Oct. 16 and she also will become a member of GM’s executive committee, the story said. (Automotive News)
