Al Monserrat, a fifteen year Citrix veteran, will be leaving the
company. He has run sales and services since 2008, during which
time he re-engineered the sales organization – greatly
strengthening the Citrix go-to-market model and growing revenues by
nearly 90 percent. Monserrat will remain with the company until
April 1 as senior vice president, Sales Strategy, to ensure an
orderly transition.
“I want to recognize the huge contribution and impact Al has had
since joining our company 15 years ago,” said Mark Templeton. “It
has been an honor and a privilege to have had him on our team, and
I want to extend my heartfelt thanks and best wishes to him as he
takes the next step in his journey.”
Sartorius is a senior global executive with deep
cross-functional expertise in the technology and telecommunications
industries. Prior to his time at Citrix, Sartorius held a range of
senior industry leadership positions, most recently with HP, where
he was vice president and general manager of HP’s networking
business unit in EMEA. Prior to that he served as CEO of Orange
Business Services; president for Avaya’s EMEA business; and in a
number of leadership roles for Motorola, including vice president
and general manager of its Government and Enterprise Mobility
Solutions business in EMEA.
Templeton continued, “Looking forward, we are extremely
fortunate to have an executive of Carlos’ caliber and experience
who is ready and able to step up to this expanded role. Carlos has
done a remarkable job getting our EMEA business back on track and
has all of the right qualities to lead the ongoing development and
growth of our global field organizations. He is well versed in our
go-to-market, partner and channel models and has a deep
understanding of our customers’ challenges and perspectives, making
him the perfect executive for this role as we continue to drive
toward our vision of a software-defined workplace.”
Sartorius’ promotion is effectively immediately. He is moving to
the US and will be based in the company’s Santa Clara, Calif.
facility.
