    HP Appoints New C.I.O.

    Adds John Hinshaw and promotes Craig Flower
    MAKER OF EXPENSIVE PRINTER INK HP has appointed former Boeing Company executive John Hinshaw as CIO.

    In the newly created role of EVP of Global Technology and Business Processes, Hinshaw will oversee IT and shared and administrative services, including indirect and services procurement. Hinshaw also will be in charge of optimising business processes across the company.

    Hinshaw was previously VP and general manager of Boeing Information Solutions at The Boeing Company, where he was responsible for running a new business.

    Prior to Boeing, Hinshaw was SVP and CIO at Verizon Wireless. Earlier in his career he also served as a consultant with Accenture.

    Hinshaw will join HP as a member of its executive council on 15 November, reporting to HP president and CEO Meg Whitman.

    Meanwhile, HP also announced that Craig Flower has been promoted to SVP and CIO. Flower will be responsible for data management, application architecture, global business intelligence, sales, and product development and engineering applications. Flower has held a wide range of IT management positions within HP since 1984.

    The new appointments come at a time when HP is losing executives right and left. Earlier this week, HP lost its CTO of the HP personal systems group, Phil McKinney, when he announced this retirement.

    Less than two weeks ago HP’s chief strategy and technology officer Shane Robison announced his retirement.

    In September, HP abruptly removed controversial CEO Leo Apotheker from his corner office and replaced him with Meg Whitman.
