Mohamad Ali, formerly CEO of IDG, has been named senior vice president of IBM‘s (NYSE: IBM) professional services and consulting arm, succeeding John Granger, who is retiring after two decades of service to the company.
Granger will become chairman of IBM Consulting and a senior adviser to Arvind Krishna, chairman and CEO of IBM, until 2025 to ensure a smooth leadership transition, Krishna announced Wednesday.
“John has been a lead architect of the strategy for Consulting, a key growth engine for IBM. I want to extend my deepest gratitude to John for his outstanding dedication,” Krishna said.
