Last week, Citrix announced that Kirill Tatarinov has been appointed President and CEO. Here’s what he brings to the table:
With 30 years of industry experience, Mr. Tatarinov has a long and successful track record overseeing product strategy and commercial operations in software and services. His background includes leadership positions at Microsoft for 13 years, including most recently serving as Executive Vice President of the Microsoft Business Solutions Division where he doubled revenue, increased profitability, led the division’s transformation to the cloud, and managed the global partner ecosystem. During his tenure at Microsoft, he also served as Corporate Vice President of the Management & Solutions Division where he accelerated product strategy execution, resulting in strong revenue growth. Prior to Microsoft, Mr. Tatarinov was a member of the senior leadership team at BMC, where he served as the Chief Technology Officer, as well as holding product and business development leadership positions.
He has quite the challenge in front of him. Citrix has recently axed 1,000 jobs and announced it will spin out its GoTo SaaS business. As in GoToMeeting and GoToAssist. Still you don’t last 13 years as Microsoft without having skills. We’ll see how he performs in his new post starting today.
