RIM board looking to replace co-CEOs Mike Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie as chairman?
The Financial Post is reporting that the RIM board may soon be looking to replace co-CEOs Mike Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie as chairman. According to the report, RIM is facing constant pressure from the shareholders and is looking to replace the current co-chairman roles with Barbara Stymiest, an independent director who joined RIM’s board back in 2007. A committee of independent directors have been examining the structure of RIM’s board, and while Lazaridis and Balsille would remain co-CEOs, a single chairman would take their place on the board of directors.
What are your thoughts? Would this be a good move for RIM? Sound off in the comments!
“So would this make their phones compete directly with the iPhone and onslaught of hundreds of Android manufacturers that kick out a new phone every 3 months? Would it mean their BB10 phones are suddenly released?
Is this the end all be all solution to all things surrounding the BlackBerry line? Will it suddenly be popular to rock a BlackBerry phone? When you post BlackBerry related topics on your Facebook, will people still taunt you?
I’m confused, seems there will still be some major problems to get over and I feel I’m too stupid to understand how this will solve anything.” – Sukh Gill
