Haviv Ilan wird am 1. April neuer President und CEO von Texas Instruments
Der gegenwärtige CEO, Rich Templeton, wechselt in die Position des Chairman
Dallas (Texas/USA), den 19. Januar 2023 – Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (Nasdaq: TXN) gab heute bekannt, dass der Vorstand des Unternehmens Haviv Ilan ausgewählt hat, um zum Stichtag 1. April der nächste President und Chief Executive Officer (CEO) von TI zu werden. Ilan, der seit 24 Jahren bei TI tätig ist, folgt damit auf den derzeitigen President und CEO, Rich Templeton, der beide Positionen im Laufe der kommenden zwei Monate abgeben wird, dem Unternehmen aber dennoch als Chairman erhalten bleibt. Es handelt sich bei dieser Umbesetzung um eine sorgfältig geplante Nachfolgeregelung, nachdem man Ilan 2014 zum Senior Vice President und 2020 zum Executive Vice President und Chief Operating Officer ernannt hatte, bevor er 2021 außerdem in den Vorstand berufen wurde.
„Als inspirierende Führungskraft genießt Ilan weitreichendes Ansehen bei unseren Kunden, Beschäftigen und Aktionären“, betonte Templeton. „Er hat gezeigt, dass er Ergebnisse liefern kann, ist intensiv auf Innovation fokussiert und setzt leidenschaftlich auf Sieg, was ihn in Summe zu einer herausragenden Führungskraft macht. Ebenso wie ich selbst, ist auch der Vorstand überzeugt, dass wir mit Ilan die richtige Person gefunden haben, um TI als nächster CEO zu dienen und das Unternehmen langfristig weiter zu stärken.“
Haviv Ilan, a 24-year veteran of TI, will become our company’s next president and CEO, effective April 1.
“I am honored to lead TI during this amazing time for our company and our industry,” said Haviv. “The combination of our broad portfolio of products, strong foundation of manufacturing and technology, reach of market channels and diverse and long-lived positions all put TI in a unique class of companies. Our ambitions and values will continue to be integral to how we build TI stronger and when we are successful, our employees, customers, communities and shareholders all benefit.”
Haviv and Rich have worked closely together for many years, and they will transition president and CEO responsibilities over the next few months.
"I have had the privilege of working closely with Rich throughout my time at TI. He’s transformed the company into what it is today, and he’s led with an unwavering commitment to TI and our people,” said Haviv. “I look forward to continuing to work with him as chairman.”
During his nearly two decades leading our company, Rich helped define and execute TI’s strategy to focus on semiconductors for signal processing and guided the company during this transformation. His strategic actions included the acquisition of National Semiconductor and the successful wind down of the company’s wireless operations, which led TI to become a global leader in analog and embedded processing. Rich directed the company’s strategic investments to strengthen research and development, expand manufacturing and build closer direct customer relationships. Under his leadership, TI emerged stronger, with better technological and product positions.
“TI’s strategy, operations and financial discipline set the company apart from others in the industry. The company is well-positioned for growth thanks to Rich’s vision and leadership during his 18-year tenure as CEO. Rich transformed the company by reshaping the focus to analog and embedded processing,” said Pam Patsley, lead director of the TI board and chair of the compensation committee. “He leaves an incredible legacy at TI and across the industry, and we look forward to continuing to benefit from his leadership and insights as executive chairman.”
In addition to his leadership of TI, Rich has carried forward the TI legacy of giving back that began with our founders. He has a passion for building strong communities and has been an advocate for STEM education and a champion of research and innovation. This philanthropic spirit has inspired TIers around the globe to make our company one we’re personally proud to be a part of and that we would want as our neighbor.
