Ricoh Announces Oranization Changes (Vision 08)

Well, it took awhile since the departure of Tom Salierno as CEO, however Ricoh has appointed a new CEO. I believe this is the fourth CEO change (Jim Ivy, Tom Salierno, Nori Goto) for Ricoh Americas Corp in the last 66 months. Doesn't seem like there is a lot of job security in this position. Congrats to Martin and we wish him well and good fortune from the Print4Pay Hotel membership!
