RE: Al Zollar out, Ambuj Goyal in ~Umberto Nongeroson 9.Jan.03 02:23 PM a Web browser General All ReleasesAll Platforms
Ambuj is a great guy, he will be good for Lotus IMO. I've worked with him and his people quite a bit and I'm very impressed with him.
Steve Mills sent a very nice letter (internally) to all Software Group employees praising Al Zollar for his accomplishments at Lotus, and in his IBM career in general.
The context is that this is one of those executive shuffles caused by a retirement. Not anything unusual at IBM. They like to rotate their executives through the different business units, to give them an opportunity to see other parts of the business and enable them to use this experience to move up the ladder in the future.
Bob Timpson, Steve Mills' general manager for developer/ISV relations, is retiring after 35 years with IBM. His place is being taken by the former head of the iSeries server unit, Al Zollar is moving to take his place, and Ambuj is taking Al's place.
