Telstra this morning confirmed the departure of chief executive Sol Trujillo, with his last day to be June 30.
Telstra CEO Sol Trujillo has slammed the federal government's decision to award funding to Telstra competitor OPEL for a new national broadband network, decrying Australia as a nation that lacks any incentive for investment in telecommunications.
Networking vendor Ericsson was forced to bring in international talent to match Telstra's gruelling 10-month schedule for construction of its "Next G" third-generation (3G) mobile network.
Optus has poured scorn on Telstra's plans to upgrade its HFC cable, saying that it will only benefit a very small number of Australians.
The leader of Telstra's ongoing IT transformation program, Trujillo amigo Tom Lamming, will return to his home country of the United States on 30 June, the telco revealed today.
Great to see so many constructive comments on here definitely a case of the facts speaking for themselves.
Time will tell how the rest of the NBN Co board shapes up, but it's hard to dismiss the credentials of its two most high-profile appointments so far.
Fair is not what the National Broadband Network tender is about; it's bloodsport, and a fight for survival, and a challenge of the wills, and all the other sorts of superlatives you might expect from an Olympics announcer.
As anybody who works from home knows, one of the great benefits of telecommuting is that pants are optional. Wear your pyjamas to that teleconference, or attend in your birthday suit if you prefer; nobody will be the wiser.
Salary reviews are rarely fun, and one of their more challenging elements for senior managers working out what kind of salary/bonus structure is appropriate.
It is clear that Trujillo's frenetic period at the helm of Telstra is drawing to a close and he is likely to be gone (of his own volition) before the end of the year.
Telstra's bid was a total stuff-up and whoever wins the right to build the fibre-to-the-node NBN will be held up by a High Court challenge from Telstra on every conceivable ground.
If mainstream media cannot be trusted to provide an objective, poison-free analysis of the issues of the day, then it is the responsibility of this government specifically, my department to come to the citizenry's rescue.
The Federal Government's preferred National Broadband Network partner is due to be nominated shortly. As that moment looms, and Stephen Conroy's language becomes more aggressive, Telstra's share price has been imploding.
The remaking of the post-Trujillo era of Telstra continues apace, with Catherine Livingstone starting to put her own stamp on what was a fractious and fractured boardroom.
