Pioneer Hi-Bred, a DuPont business, has announced two new leadership positions to continue to deliver improved products and services for customer success.
Alejandro Munoz is named vice president, Americas Group and Global Production, with commercial business responsibility for the United States, Canada and Latin America regions. In addition, Munoz also will have global responsibility for seed production and safety/risk management. He reports to Paul E. Schickler, president - Pioneer.
Judd O'Connor is named vice president, regional director for the U.S. region. He will be responsible for Pioneer operations within the six business units in the United States and PROaccess Genetics, focusing on providing leading-edge seed genetics and services to growers on a targeted, local basis.
"These leadership announcements are consistent with our long-held principle of positioning Pioneer closer to the customer to anticipate needs and market demands," says Schickler. "The operations that Munoz and O'Connor lead are composed of smaller, cross-functional teams with clear objectives and accountability for decision-making and for specific local needs. This creates faster decision-making and more nimble teams to serve customers still better."
Munoz and O'Connor will continue to be based in Johnston, Iowa.
