    Changes to our Sage Executive Leadership Team


    Striving for excellence and ensuring the best for our shared customers.


    As a valued partner, I am pleased to share updates with our leadership team
    here at Sage, aimed at accelerating our strategy and driving customer success.


    Derk Bleeker, with more than 20 years of commercial, finance, and strategy
    experience, is appointed to the role of Chief Commercial Officer, responsible for
    Go To Market globally. Derk has been part of the Sage leadership team since
    2014, having previously worked for Danaher and HG Capital.


    Eduardo Rosini, with more than 25 years of global sales, marketing, and
    business development experience, is appointed Chief Growth Officer. His
    career includes serving as EVP Partners and Alliances at Sage and VP of MidMarket and Corporate Sales at Intuit, along with leadership positions at Turi, a
    machine learning startup acquired by Apple, and at Microsoft, where his focus
    was on SMB and partner ecosystems.


    Aziz Benmalek has decided to leave Sage. I would like to extend my gratitude
    to Aziz for his significant contribution and wish him all the best for the future.


    The rich experience and proven leadership qualities that Derk and Eduardo
    bring will help drive the continued execution of Sage's strategy.


    Derk, Eduardo, and I are looking forward to seeing many of you at Transform in
    Las Vegas in a couple of weeks.


    Thank you for your partnership and dedication to Sage. Together, let's continue
    striving for excellence and ensuring the best for our shared customers.


    Best regards,
    Steve Hare
    CEO

    I did not get this in my email inbox, so I'm not sure how widely this has made the rounds. I am not sure if another president will be named for North America or if Bleeker and Rosini will fill Benmalek's spot.

    Aziz Benmalek was touted by Sage on May 26, 2022  - Sage appoints Aziz Benmalek as permanent President of Sage North America

    By my quick math, it seems that Aziz Benmalek made it a little under two years (note that Benmalek had been with Sage for a period of time before Sage made him "permanent" president - so he technically made it past the two-year mark)

    Note: For anyone who is a consultant member and wants access to our Google Workspace file storage, including Sage mailings, knowledge, and files, please use this form to provide your Google account. We will add people as a group rather than individual email addresses, which is more challenging to manage security-wise.
