Announced on the HPE blog by Phil Davis, President of Hybrid IT:
Since the implementation of our sales geography model almost two years ago, we’ve made strong progress delivering on our strategy and helping our customers accelerate their digital transformation journeys. As we consider ways to further optimize the business with greater efficiency and scale, I am excited and proud to announce the promotion of Heiko Meyer to Chief Sales Officer, reporting to me. Effective November 1, 2019, this change will help drive value to our customers, partners and selling teams.
With more than 32 years at the company, Heiko has proven himself a tremendously effective leader, most recently as the Managing Director of Germany and Senior Vice President of the geography spanning Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Russia. Given his excellent performance, strong operational expertise and extensive knowledge of sales, I am confident he will bring fresh perspective and a new level of focus to the role.
We are also making adjustments to rebalance the alignment of our sales geographies for increased focus and execution. This rebalance is driven in some cases for proximity and cultural similarities and in others based on similar business and go-to-market models.
