Anne Altman, IBM
After two years of leading IBM’s System z business, Anne Altman has been tapped IBM General Manager of the Global Sector. In her new role, which is set to begin Aug. 1, Altman will lead IBM’s global solutions and technology sales for government, education, health care, life sciences and pharmaceutical industries.
Altman says she’s “thrilled” to return to the public sector market during what she calls a unique period of large government recovery and stimulus programs underway in the U.S. and abroad. “I see an opportunity for IBM to continue, as well as broaden, its work with governments and private sector organizations around the world — at the federal and state and local level, as well as healthcare and education markets –- to modernize national infrastructures and improve the delivery of important services citizens and governments rely on every day,” says Altman.
