Leadership transitions mark pivotal moments for any organization. The best transitions build on proven strengths while creating new possibilities for growth.
As I prepare to become Unisys' seventh CEO on April 1, I'm focused on continuing our momentum and seizing new opportunities to strengthen our position in technology services.
From controller to corner office
I feel incredibly fortunate and humbled by the opportunity to lead Unisys. While this transition represents a personal milestone for me, it reflects Unisys' thoughtful approach to leadership development and succession planning.
Over the past decade, I've had the privilege of working alongside Peter Altabef, our current CEO, whose mentorship has been invaluable. From my early days as Corporate Controller through roles as CFO and COO, Peter involved me in key strategic decisions. This methodical preparation ensures that as we move forward, we build upon our strong foundation while maintaining the momentum we've created together.
Maintaining stability amidst change
Continuity matters in technology services. While many providers face market challenges, Unisys maintains a steady direction. We focus on sustainable growth by expanding capabilities, deepening client relationships, and supporting associate development. Our strategy emphasizes the consistency and reliability our clients expect while continuously evolving.
Looking ahead, I see tremendous opportunity. We're enhancing our core offerings, investing in next-generation solutions and capitalizing on tech market disruption. Most importantly, we're doubling down on what sets Unisys apart – our people. We're creating new career pathways and fostering an environment where innovation thrives.
Looking ahead
This next phase for Unisys builds on proven success. We'll keep strengthening our foundation while developing new opportunities. Client success, associate development, and technical excellence guide our decisions.
As we chart our course forward, I want to share my commitments to those who make our success possible:
- To our clients: Expect the same dedication to your success, backed by enhanced capabilities and deeper expertise.
- To our associates: Your growth and development remain central to our strategy.
- To all our stakeholders: Know that Unisys continues to build on its legacy of innovation while embracing new opportunities to create value.
I'm excited about what lies ahead and honored to lead Unisys into its next era. Together, we'll write the next chapters of our story, building on our rich heritage while driving innovation that shapes the future of enterprise technology.
