PepsiCo's Board of Directors Appoints Indra K. Nooyi as CEO |
PepsiCo announced that Steve Reinemund, 58, Chairman and CEO, will retire next May. "After 22 years with PepsiCo, more than five of them as Chairman and CEO, I have decided that my family is entitled to more time from me than the responsibilities and obligations of continuing as PepsiCo's CEO requires and deserves," said Mr. Reinemund. "It was, in many respects, the toughest and easiest decision of my life."
The board of directors has elected Indra K. Nooyi, 50, as CEO effective October 1, 2006. Mr. Reinemund will serve as Executive Chairman of PepsiCo and will continue to serve as a member of the board of directors until his retirement in May, 2007. |

BUILDING
ON THE PROMISE OF
DIVERSITY
Across America these
days, leaders of all
types of
organizations are
voicing
disillusionment
about the current
state of diversity.
It is an enormous
topic, with enormous
consequences..........
BEYOND RACE AND
GENDER
A young corporation
with a vibrant
business concept is
growing rapidly- too
rapidly. Several
factions are
emerging; founding
employees vs.
"post-founding"
hires, new-building
occupants vs.
old-building
occupants, function
x vs. function y,
home office vs.
field offices, male
vs.
female...........
BUILDING A HOUSE FOR
DIVERSITY
How a
fable about a
Giraffe & an
Elephant offers new
strategies for
today's workforce!!!
A
giraffe and an
elephant consider
themselves friends.
But when the giraffe
invites the elephant
into his home,
disaster strikes.
The house has been
designed to meet the
needs of the tall,
slender giraffe. The
elephant smashes
into doorways and
walls trying to
maneuver. The
giraffe gently
suggests aerobics
and ballet classes.
The elephant is
unconvinced. To him,
the house is the
problem.......... |
