- Share via
Texas Instruments has realigned management of its semiconductor operations. It named Executive Vice President William N. Sick, who had been in charge of the semiconductor group, to a new position overseeing Pacific Rim business as well as alliances with customers and other semiconductor manufacturers.
The company selected Executive Vice President William P. Weber, who formerly headed corporate development, to assume responsibility for worldwide semiconductor operations.
Sick and Weber will report directly to TI Chief Executive Jerry R. Junkins.
Junkins said the move recognizes the “significant changes under way” in the semiconductor industry, and is “a result of TI’s ongoing strategic review process started in 1985. The major issues for the U.S. semiconductor industry today relate to the Asia-Pacific region, in terms of both competition and market opportunity.”
A spokesman for the Dallas-based company said the new management setup “is a team approach” to the new structure in the industry.
Weber’s responsibilities for corporate development will be taken over by Executive Vice President Grant A. Dove.
