In this next installment of Heidrick & Struggles’ Leadership Perspectives video series, Heidrick & Struggles’ Camilla Gilone speaks to Giordano Albertazzi, the CEO of Vertiv, a global digital infrastructure provider, about his first 100 days as CEO. Albertazzi shares what the transition has been like, moving from the president of the Americas region to the CEO role—what the board and other members of the executive team did to prepare, what surprises he’s had so far, and what his short- and long-term people and talent goals are. He also discusses sustainability goals as a key factor to Vertiv’s business strategy and how he is linking organizational purpose to the business strategy.
