Coca-Cola Reshapes Leadership to Speed Digital Transformation

Coca-Cola is reshaping its leadership team to accelerate its digital transformation, a move that comes as Henrique Braun prepares to step into the chief executive role this spring.

The beverage giant on Wednesday said it will create a new chief digital officer position and reorganize several senior-leadership responsibilities, underscoring efforts to centralize digital decision-making and speed up execution across its global business. The changes are set to take effect March 31, when Braun succeeds James Quincey as CEO, said the company.
