To this end, I have recently studied possible options for reaching the targeted savings. To make the best decision on this, I have reviewed functions within my team on the basis of core versus non-core functions, and the inherent cost versus value proposition. As a result, I made the decision last week to disband Joel Henenberg's team. To fulfill the role of Joel and his team in leading IT initiatives, we will lean on the appropriate IT project managers and the business sponsors/end users. Joel and his team were told of this decision on Friday afternoon last week. Our HR rep spent some time with the team explaining the corporate re-deployment service that they all will be working through over the next few weeks. Let me know if you have any questions regarding this. While it was a tough decision, I feel comfortable having made it.
