Joe Ripp's Last Hurrah
AS THE COMPANY CONTINUES FIGURE OUT WHAT WORKS, CEO JOE RIPP PULLS WHAT COULD BE HIS LAST TRICK
TIME INC CEO JOE RIPP |
Mr. Ripp is planning to restructure the current layout of how the magazines are managed, decreasing Evelyn Webster's portfolio by pushing the sports group under People/Entertainment Weekly President Rich Batista, a move some expect will be announced this week according to the NY Post. Time Inc's stock continues to slide thanks to the overall performance of media stocks but also because, Wall Street still doesn't believe in the current strategy. This September will mark the third year that Mr. Ripp has been on the job, but it could also be the beginning of the clock running out on his tenure and vision for a storied company that is still trying to find its way in an increasingly digital media environment.
