business unit/division/operating segment steering/executive committee Explanation: UB generally stands for "Unternehmensbereich," which can be translated as business unit, division or even operating segment, etc. "Plastics," for example, is an operating segment of General Electric. I would probably translate "Leitungskreis" as steering or executive committee. Management team might work, as well. |
