Παραιτήθηκε ο CEO της Acer!

Η Acer εξέδωσε Δελτίο Τύπου με το οποίο ενημερώνει ότι ο Gianfranco Lanci, CEO της εταιρίας, αποτελεί παρελθόν από την κεφαλή της εταιρίας, καθώς έγινε δεκτή η παραίτηση του! Η είδηση προκαλεί έκπληξη, αφού ο Lanci επανέφερε την Acer στο δρόμο της επιτυχίας μέσα στα τρία χρόνια που κρατούσε τα ηνία της.

Οι λεπτομέρειες για τη λύση της συνεργασίας των δύο πλευρών δεν έχουν γίνει γνωστές, αλλά φημολογείται ότι υπήρξαν διαφορές σχετικά με το ποια στρατηγική θα ακολουθήσουν στο μέλλον, αφού η αγορά των ηλεκτρονικών έχει ανοίξει σε νέους τομείς (smartphones, tablets).

TAIPEI, TAIWAN (March 31, 2011) – Acer CEO and President Gianfranco Lanci has resigned from the company, with immediate effect. Acer Chairman J.T. Wang takes acting role in the interim. The company has commenced with the planning of organizational and operational adjustments for the sustainable future of Acer.

The resignation was approved at a meeting of Acer’s Board of Directors today, and the company has communicated internally with its worldwide employees.

On the company’s future development, Lanci held different views from a majority of the board members, and could not reach a consensus following several months’ of dialog. They placed different levels of importance on scale, growth, customer value creation, brand position enhancement, and on resource allocation and methods of implementation.

The change does not affect current operations which are functioning as normal. Acer’s strong management team of multi-nationals has been well-informed and is committed to overseeing and implementing the company strategies, as does the amicable company relations with industry partners persist. Acer will continue to push for globalization, follow its multi-brand and channel business model, develop competitive products and services, and foster closer relations with key vendors and channel partners.

Acer Chairman, J.T. Wang expresses, “The personal computer remains the core of our business. We have built up a strong foundation and will continue to expand within, especially in the commercial PC segment. In addition, we are stepping into the new mobile device market, where we will invest cautiously and aim to become one of the leading players.”

“In this new ICT industry,” continued Wang, “Acer needs a period of time for adjustment. With the spirit of entrepreneurship, we will face new challenges and look to the future with confidence.”

In his role as President and CEO, Lanci has contributed significantly toward Acer’s growth. The company expresses its true appreciation for Lanci’s efforts and wishes him all the best in his future endeavors.
