So sometime recently, the ceo was named chairman. No news articles, no call out, just hush hush change...seems strange. Thoughts on why it was done and why quietly rather than with an announcement?

@1b4 This aged well.
@ty it is now July. What does Nostradamus say now?
@54s Greg Brown will probably be CEO now somewhere else. HCSC’s loss.
@1b4 he should be CEO but was just let go
@ty Can't happen soon enough.
@197 good.
Stephen gonna end up with it.
@1bx why wish for bad turns of events for people? Ridiculous
@1d1 whoever wrote that is a piece of sh-t
@1bx i second that. now watch it be Arun
I hope it’s Greg Brown or Mike Frank.
There’s going to be the mandatory annual leadership reshuffle that’s for sure.
The campaign starts here: Greg Brown for CEO
Opella won't be taking over.
@172 found another lurking boomer
Yeah somehow folks from HCSC use the layoff to complain and gossip it’s weird and revealing about the culture
@yj let’s hope not.
@108 Yes, but my very limited understanding is executive level changes require board approval. Seems like the retirement would be one of several SLT changes. Again, speculation.
@107 I mean, he is chairman of the board, right?
Why would he step down before the July board meeting?
Guessing Mike Frank or someone on loan from the board, like when David Lesar was interim CEO
@ty any idea who is going to replace him? Opella?
He'll be stepping down as CEO in June
Correction, he was the vice chair as recently as 5/12/2025.
@cw, he was co-chair now he is the sole chairman.
He’s had both titles since 2020.
Read the news or google it ge-z.
I heard that was going to happen in May but I didn’t know it already happened. Is he going to be be president AND board chair?
How does that relate to potential or existing layoffs? The website is literally called thelayoff.com.
