Expeditors International of Washington, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXPD),
today announced that, effective immediately, Philip M. Coughlin,
previously the Executive Vice President of North America, has been
appointed President of Global Geographies and Operations. This
position, while new in structure is not necessarily new in
function. This role incorporates all geographic responsibilities
which previously reported up to the Chief Executive Officer via the
Company’s Geographic Presidents. This means that all
geographic reporting responsibilities will report in through Mr.
Coughlin, who will report directly to the Chief Executive
Officer.
“This promotion is well deserved and very appropriate. Phil
has been, and continues to be, a thought leader as well as an
expert at tactical execution. Some of the very important
projects that have been crafted and successfully implemented by
Phil include ABcM ((Activity Based cost Measurement) productivity
enhancements), CRDM (Customer Retention, Development and
Management), as well as our Global Data Strategy
initiatives. As we move into the implementation stages of our
strategic re-assessment, it is important that we have both the
right organizational structure and the right operational
leader. We think this is the right structure and Phil is the
right person to make this structure work by driving more uniformity
and consistency throughout our global operations,” said Jeffrey S.
Musser, President and Chief Executive Officer.
Mr. Coughlin is a graduate of the University of Illinois where
he earned a B.A. in Liberal Arts and Sciences. Additionally, Mr.
Coughlin holds a J.D. from The John Marshall Law School.
