Alvarion Message From the CEO

Alvarion’s CEO, Eran Gorev, publised a message to Alvarion Shareholders.

I feel compelled to share the message as I find it entertaining:

As you know, I assumed the role of President and CEO on December 7, 2009. After working in high tech for many years, I have come to admire Alvarion for both its technology and the business it has developed.

Message starts with “As you know”. Press release was in Sep. 2009 , while he joined as CEO on Dec. 7th. It would have been nice if he could publish this letter closer to the date he joined Alvarion. The second excerpt of the quote above is more interesting since it tries to do two things:

1) Show that Eran Gorev is Experienced (he is)

2) Alvarion has good technology and Business (mostly correct)

But, I just don’t like the way it was phrased. Does it mean that if one does not have the experience Eran has, it is difficult to appreciate Alvarion?

As we enter a new year, I want to take this opportunity to reiterate our commitment to creating long-term value for Alvarion shareholders. We will work with renewed energy to successfully capitalize on the opportunities and meet the challenges, with our dual focus on profitability and growth. We look forward to sharing our progress with you during the year.

No comments on this part. Just I wish he could write more:

  • What is the focus for Alvarion for next year?
  • What is he going to change?

Anyway, I think the next Earning Conference Call is going to be interesting.
