Leave No Ladder Unclimbed
Talk about climbing the corporate ladder. Enrique Santacana has been named Region Manager of ABB North America and President & CEO of ABB, Inc. This promotion to some may not seem surprising, considering Santacana’s history. Let’s begin with his humble beginnings: a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from the University of Puerto Rico, a Master of Engineering Degree in Electric Power Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, a Master of Business Administration Degree from Duke University. Since his start at ABB in 1977 he has been on his way to the top. He has held several positions throughout his career: head of ABB’s Power Technology Division, Vice President and General Manager of Medium Voltage Products, Vice President and Director of ABB Power T&D Company’s Electric Systems Technology Institute, and Vice President and General Manager of the ABB T&D Company’s Electric Metering and Control Business. As you can see he has been busy over the last three decades. He aided in the turnaround of ABB’s performance and culture change. The last ABB company he was in charge of, ABB’s Power Products, grossed $2 Billion. So it is more than evident that Santacana knows how to get things done. Mr. Santacana I think you can use the elevator now.
