Telecom Lead India: Storage major EMC has reshuffled its
top management.
EMC Vice Chairman Bill Teuber will focus on
strategy and business development in emerging markets, assist with government
relations and work closely with the Board of Directors. Teuber will
continue his sponsorship of EMC’s largest customer accounts and work with
chairman and CEO Joe Tucci and EMC’s executive team to develop future leaders.
Moreover, EMC announced a series of senior sales
executive appointments.
The company announced the appointment of EMC veteran
executive Bill Scannell to lead EMC’s Global Sales & Customer
Operations. Recently, he was responsible for driving revenue growth
across EMC’s full range of products and services in North America, Latin
America and EMEA. Combined, these regions contributed approximately 85 percent
of EMC’s global revenues in 2011.
EMC also announced new sales leadership for the Americas,
Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ) regions.
John Hanlon, previously EMC leader for U.S. Commercial
business, will assume responsibility for sales and customer operations in the
Americas.
Adrian McDonald, previously EMC leader for EMEA North,
will be responsible for sales and customer operations across all of EMEA.
David Webster, previously leader for Australia, New
Zealand and Southeast Asia, will head sales and customer operations in Asia
Pacific and Japan.
Webster succeeds Steve Leonard, who takes a new role
focused on further building out EMC’s presence in emerging markets, after
growing EMC APJ sales from $1.1 billion in 2006 to $2.6 billion in 2011.
Leonard will remain based in Asia and continue to report
to Teuber.
Joe Eazor, who previously oversaw EMC’s global customer
accounts and OEMs, will assume additional responsibility as COO, Global Sales
& Customer Operations, focusing on sales strategy and managing key global
sales functions to support growth.
EMC is fortunate to have an exceptional team of leaders
who take great pride in developing employee talent and in expanding our
industry-leading portfolio of products and services. It is a privilege to
work closely with Bill Teuber. He has proven himself to be a talented
executive. His work with our global sales force over the past five years
has helped the company achieve record business results,” said Joe Tucci,
chairman and CEO, EMC.
The time is right for Bill Scannell to step up and help
lead EMC’s next major phase of growth, and I’m proud to hand over the reins to
him and his team. I’d also like to thank Steve Leonard for his leadership
and execution in Asia Pacific and Japan over the past five years. His
experience and knowledge of the region will continue to be a tremendous asset
as we enter into our next phase of growth,” said Bill Teuber, vice
chairman, EMC.
