Meet the new division leaders for Cook Medical
Last week, Pete Yonkman announced that Cook Medical is changing its structure, merging the ten strategic business units into two divisions called Vascular and MedSurg. This change will organize our sales teams to match the way our customers work in today’s healthcare system. Read this memo for more details about the structure changes.
This diagram shows how the two new divisions will fit within our new company structure. The changes we are making will take several months to put into place, so we will be ready to talk to our customers and communities later in the year.
For now, you can learn a bit about Mark Breedlove and D.J. Sirota, who will lead the Vascular and MedSurg divisions. Below the main videos are links to translated versions of Mark and D.J.’s messages.
