Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. lost Chief Information Officer Hsiao Wang just over a year after he was named to the post amid a wider leadership shakeup at the drugstore chain.
In an internal note viewed by Bloomberg News, interim Chief Executive Officer Ginger Graham said Wang had been on a leave of absence but that effective immediately, he’s no longer with the company. Neal Sample, a consultant and former CIO at Northwestern Mutual, will step in to help Graham make decisions about new tech initiatives. He will also sit in on the executive committee, according to the note.
