Kuznik became the organization's chief executive officer; George Graber, chief operating officer, also took the title of company president. Meanwhile, Bryan Cressey remains chairman of the board and Paul Olson, most recently the CEO, is now vice chairman and remains a director of the company.
Kuznik has been a director of the company since 1999. He is a former executive vice president of Motorola Inc. and president of Motorola operations in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Kuznik also served as president of Motorola's Personal Communications Sector.
Graeber has been a director and COO of CDT since 1998. He has served in various other positions with the company, including executive vice president of the company, and president of CDT's Montrose division. Prior to joining CDT, Graeber was a vice president and general manager of Anixter.
Olson noted, ``I am very comfortable as a director and one of the largest individual stockholders of CDT that CDT will continue to grow and prosper under the new leadership. CDT has a very strong and deep management team, which will only be enhanced by the addition of Fred Kuznik. Fred's worldwide management experience and knowledge of the various wireless, networking and OEM markets will be a big positive for CDT as it moves forward.''
