Organizational Transformation Opportunity


Glo Gordon, Vice President, Communications
Matt McFerrin, Sr. Industry Director, Oracle Communications
Initial Thought On Organizational Change

“Technological change is like an axe


in the hands of a pathological
criminal.”
-Albert Einstein, Really Smart Guy
AT&T Restructuring
From regional to Consumer and Business LOBs
An interview with Jeff Weber , vice president of
video products for AT&T

“CED: What’s AT&T’s approach to satisfying


growing consumer desire for the convergence of
services?

JW: We made an organizational change last year,


and we’re implementing it now. Wireless and
broadband and video have been brought together
under Ralph de la Vega, who was in charge of
wireless, and now is the CEO of the combination.

Sometimes organizational changes don’t matter.


We think this one does. The change is significant.
Product teams now report to one marketing
manager. More conversations are now happening
in the normal course of business on how to bring
all this together, conversations that may not have
happened before. It’s a competitive advantage for
us if we continue to execute on it.”.”

Final Thought On Organizational Change
“Twenty years from now you will be more
disappointed by the things you didn't do than
by the ones you did do. So throw off the
bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.”
-Mark Twain, Humorist, Author, Occasional Cynic
