John and Hans Vestberg talk about the unique challenge Hans faced when he first took the helm as Chairman and CEO of Verizon in 2018 on the 18th episode of “Chambers Talks: A Podcast Series with John Chambers”. Hans describes lessons learned from taking over an already successful company – he did not have to fix the ship, but he also recognized the importance of disruption. He developed a three-pronged plan to focus resource and investment allocations on the current business, future business, and emerging business.

Hans’ insights about the importance of continuous buy-in and communication with stakeholders will leave listeners taking notes for their next leadership meeting.
