Hewlett-Packard Co. Chief Executive Officer Leo Apotheker elevated executives in the software, sales and services divisions, part of a leadership realignment aimed at boosting sales and making managers more accountable.
Bill Veghte, who runs software; Jan Zadak, executive vice president of global sales; and Dave Donatelli, head of the unit in charge of servers, storage, networking and some services, will report directly to Apotheker, Hewlett-Packard said yesterday. Ann Livermore, a 29-year company veteran passed over three times for the top job, will join Hewlett-Packard’s board.
