Motorola taps former AT&T CEO as chairman
Motorola has chosen former AT&T chief executive David Dorman as its new non-executive chairman, replacing Ed Zander, who is retiring from the role. Dorman has about three decades of experience in the telecom industry, including a stint as executive vice president of SBC until January.
Motorola, which has experienced a market share loss in the smartphone business in competition with rivals like Nokia and Apple, recently announced a plan to break into two independent publicly traded companies.
The appointment of Dorman came two days after Motorola settled a proxy battle with its largest individual investor, Carl Icahn, by agreeing to give two of his candidates seats on the company's board.
