Adapt IT is therefore happy to announce the appointment of Tony Vicente as its new chief executive officer, which would mark a transformational change in leadership apt for the continued growth of Adapt IT and its strategic ideals. Vicente joined Adapt IT as the chief operating officer and succeeds Tiffany Dunsdon, who was elevated to a new position in regional leadership.
Dunsdon assumes the role of acquiring group leader for MEA within Omegro, speaking to the company’s expansion-oriented strategy. Also, accompanying Dunsdon in her exit is the rather high-profile appointment for the region: Nombali Mbambo, the former CFO of Adapt IT, will now take on group finance director responsibilities for the Middle East and Africa.
The combination of such extensive leadership change would reinforce the good governance framework with oversight of Adapt IT operations.
This change is perceived more as strategic manipulation than a restructuring exercise. In Dunsdon’s words, “the management changes would build the capacity to support growth” of the main strategy of acquiring good software companies possibly having implementation risk in markets around the globe.
This has been the strategy behind the Volaris Group growth model-integration and enhancement of software businesses into the international marketplace.
With such unpredictable and rapid change, Adapt IT would seem to fit this trajectory of the change that happened. Internationalization until the year 2022, with clouds of impotence over its operation, brought chaos into the Volaris Group, and further listing on the Johannesburg stock exchange brought it slightly to light. All of these have seemed as if for breastplate historical references under which Adapt IT stands and thereby gets placed within the wider international techno-ecosystem.
The fresh leadership team of Adapt IT is inclined toward innovating customer growth. According to Dunsdon, “Adapt IT begins to stack up with the best-run software companies in the world” relying heavily on research and development in partnership with their customers.
The position upgrade of Vicente from COO to CEO led to a seamless transition. He is well acquainted with the operations of the organization: operations through strategy. Therefore under his aegis, Adapt IT will be expected to convert the initiatives set down in the Dunsdon era for growth and tech innovation of the Company in the toughest market of the software services sector.
In this regard, the leadership change at Adapt IT is more an announcement of intent to which the company would like to market itself as a strategic vehicle for growth.
