Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. lost Chief Information Officer Hsiao Wang just over a year after appointing him to the role.
In an internal note viewed by Bloomberg News, interim Chief Executive Officer Ginger Graham said Wang had been on a leave of absence but that effective immediately, he’s no longer at the company. Neal Sample, a consultant and former CIO at Northwestern Mutual, will step in to help Graham make decisions about new tech initiatives. He will also sit in on the executive committee, according to the note.
Walgreens is searching for a new CEO after Rosalind Brewer abruptly departed at the end of August. The retail chain is also looking for a new chief financial officer after James Kehoe left in July after five years at the drugstore chain. Wang, previously CIO of arts-and-crafts retailer Michaels, was hired by Brewer to strengthen the company’s technology amid Walgreens’ move into health-care services.
