This mentality is somewhat changing, but very slowly and white westerns are still prioritized. You won't see any Indians run German auto companies any time soon like you see them running major US tech companies.

Daimler... Ola is Swedish Adidas... Kasper is Danish Beiersdorf... Stefan is Belgian Linde... Aldo is Italian
I think you're drawing conclusions where there are none to be drawn
Two exception 1 from USA and another from balkans.
Let's see.
Siemens USA: CEO Barbara Humpton, not German.
Bosch USA: Mike Mansuetti, not German.
BMW USA: President Bernhard Kuhnt (sounds German), but top leadership team includes lots of Non-Germans: Shaun Bugbee, Lisa Errion Saums, Adam Sykes, Howard S. Harris, Adam McNeill, Michael Peyton, Trudy Hardy
Porsche USA: CEO Kjell Gruner (German), but top leadership includes mostly names that are not German: Joe Lawrence, Thierry Kartochian, George Feygin, Angus Fitton, Glenn Garde, Pedro Mota, Scott Codute, Trevor Arthur, John Cappella.
I guess you either don't know or you do know but spread misinformation on purpose.
Bosch CEO: Volkmar Denner
BMW CEO: Harald Krueger
Porsche CEO: Oliver Blume
All German. I always thought of the CEOs of foreign branches were usually more "marketing" CEOs than actual run the core business CEOs. They are the face for the regional dealers and suppliers to meet in the respective regions.
It's expected to have leadership in the domestic branch of any large corporation to be mostly from that country: few Americans emigrate to Germany for work, expecting the ~100k US-citizens in Germany to contain the CEOs of major companies among ~80m people (mostly German) seems ridiculous just looking at statistics.
