Under Louis D’Ambrosio, who became Avaya’s CEO in mid-2006, the maker of enterprise phone systems has been working to execute on a new strategy, especially by trimming its operating expenses. Although the quarterly earnings it reported in January failed to excite Wall Street, the company did make a small flurry of executive moves, naming a new CFO, a new CIO, and a new SVP in charge of its communications products. Also in January, Avaya announced that it would acquire Ubiquity, a U.K.-based company that makes software used to run the big servers of network service providers.

For a company that makes so much food, Sara Lee certainly has slimmed down lately. During the past two years, the big food and apparel maker has radically reorganized its business, in part by selling off some of its famous brands, including Hanes underwear, as well as its European meats business. Leading the charge in all of this has been CEO Brenda Barnes, who has served in that role since 2005. In January, the company revealed further steps to remake itself when it announced that it would close two U.S. plants (with an attendant layoff of 1,700 workers) and open a huge new R&D facility at its Illinois headquarters.
