After the change of power Lehmann back at FIS at least until 2027

Following a leadership change at the International Ski Federation (FIS), Urs Lehmann has returned to the organization in an interim role as General Secretary until March 2027. Lehmann previously served as CEO but stepped down in June ahead of a congress in Belgrade, where new president Alexander Ospelt defeated incumbent Johan Eliasch. Lehmann’s return comes as a strategic move to ensure continuity during the transition period. He will succeed Frenchman Michel Vion, who is stepping down. The FIS plans to conduct an open and careful recruitment process for Lehmann’s eventual replacement, supported by professional HR experts. Additionally, the federation intends to form working groups to address future executive structure and financial stability.
