Focused Management Board Membership for Atos Origin
Paris, 1 August 2008 -
Atos Origin announces the departure of Wilbert Kieboom and consequently the end of his responsibilities as Management Board member. The Group would like to thank Wilbert Kieboom for his contribution over the last eight
years.
Wilbert Kieboom has expressed his desire, in alignment with the Group, to pursue
other career interests.
Philippe Germond, Chairman of the Management Board and CEO of Atos Origin, will take over with immediate effect Wilbert Kieboom’s previous responsibilities.
Specifically, he will ensure operational management of all countries and service lines.
Wilbert Kieboom will therefore not be replaced in the Management Board that will
henceforth be composed of Philippe Germond and Eric Guilhou.
Atos Origin is continuing to grow and improve its performance, with significant
contracts being signed. The new organisation structure will allow the Chairman of the Management Board, along with Eric Guilhou, to lead the operations of the Group, for the successful development of Atos Origin.
Jean-Philippe Thierry, Chairman of the Supervisory Board, declares “I am convinced the focused Management Board will successfully take advantage of such concentrated operational responsibilities.”
