Polycom has appointed former Packeteer Asia Pacific managing director, Hansjoerg C. Wagner, as vice president and managing director, Polycom Asia Pacific. Leo Cortjens, who held the position of acting vice president Asia Pacific, has been promoted to a newly-created role of vice president, global alliances. Wagner will be based in Polycom's offices in Singapore and will report to Kim Niederman, vice president worldwide sales. Cortjens will return to Polycom's headquarters in the US and will also report to Kim Niederman. Prior to joining Packeteer, Wagner held various senior management roles at Netegrity (acquired by Computer Associates) and Milgo Solutions (formerly Racal Data Group). In his new role Cortjens will assume responsibility for what Polycom says is one of primary strategic initiatives for 2006 and beyond: building strong relations with technology alliance partners such as Alcatel, Avaya, Cisco, IBM, Microsoft, Nortel, among others, and establishing new partnerships on a global basis. |
