    "With the formation of P&G Global Prestige & Professional Care, and the move to our new operating model, we have set the strategic course for a successful future for the Wella core businesses of professional (salon business) and cosmetics and fragrances within the P&G group," commented Dr. Gurtler. "This next step in our evolution builds upon a proud heritage of our people and the strong business results we have delivered. All through our partnership with P&G it was important to me to ensure we have a framework that will further accelerate our business development while providing the best possible opportunities for our employees. Now that we have achieved that, I feel the time is right for me to hand over our operations to the next generation of leaders, in whom I have full confidence."
