Thomas E. Hogan to leave HP

According to a press release, under Hogan’s leadership, HP has embarked on a multiyear sales and marketing transformation that has accelerated sales hiring, built a world-class sales university and launched the Instant-On Enterprise strategy for business and governments. With the achievement of these milestones, Hogan felt the time was right for him to pursue other interests. He will remain at HP until May 31 to ensure a smooth transition. HP also announced that Jan Zadak, managing director for HP Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), will assume the role of executive vice president, Enterprise Business Sales and Marketing, effective May 1.

Throughout his career, Zadak has been a leader in the development and implementation of HP’s solution selling capability. He joined Compaq Computer in 1997 and held several senior management roles in EMEA’s fast growth markets, including Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
