New president, CEO at Rogers Communications
By Adnews Staff
Guy Laurence will take over as president and chief executive officer of Rogers Communications on Dec. 2. He is currently CEO of Vodafone UK. Laurence joined Vodafone in 2000. He became CEO of Vodafone Netherlands in 2005 and moved to the United Kingdom in 2008. He has also worked at MGM Studios. Current Rogers CEO Nadir Mohamed announced plans to retire earlier this year.
"The board unanimously chose Guy as the best leader to succeed Nadir and to take the company forward," said Alan Horn, chairman of the board at Rogers Communications. "Guy is a strong, proven executive who has consistently delivered strong financial and operating results in highly complex and competitive markets. The breadth and depth of his experience in telecommunications, pay television and media are perfectly suited to Rogers and to the challenges and opportunities we see ahead."
