Renowned industry leader evolves his roles as
Strategic Advisor, bringing passion for processes, people and
results to Celonis and its customers
Celonis, the global leader in Process Mining and Process
Intelligence, today announced that Mike Kaufmann, former CEO of
Fortune 15 company Cardinal Health, will step up from being a
member of its customer advisory board to the role of Chairman for
North America.
Kaufmann’s first experience with Celonis was as one of its key
customers during his tenure at Cardinal Health. He then became an
invaluable member of the Celonis customer advisory board in early
2023, contributing his deep experience and insights in the
healthcare industry, guiding a number of its strategic initiatives,
and supporting customers across all industries. In his new role as
Chairman of North America, his extensive leadership skills will
make a significant contribution to Celonis’ growth and market
penetration.
“Through my experience as a customer and subsequently working
with Celonis’ customers during my time as advisor, I saw firsthand
how the company drives digital transformation and significant value
for them. This experience led to my decision to become a strategic
advisor for Celonis last year and I’m honored to step into the role
of Chairman,” said Kaufmann. “There has never been a more critical
time for enterprises to make their processes work. The rapid pace
of change all companies are facing to not only keep up with their
peers and competitors, but improve their business processes for
people and the planet, keeps accelerating. I look forward to
partnering closely with the Celonis leadership team and our
customers so they can realize similar levels of value I have
witnessed so far, and to work together to continue to push the
limits.”
“Delivering lasting value to customers at a time of
unprecedented change requires access to the most experienced
leadership,” said Alex Rinke, co-CEO and co-founder, Celonis. “We
are delighted to have Mike as Chairman to provide his extensive
expertise to our customers in North America as we continue to
innovate, grow and drive value for them - on the top, bottom and
green line.”
