NBC Universal Acquires Oxygen

Jeff Zucker, president & CEO of NBC Universal, and Geraldine Laybourne, chmn. & CEO of Oxygen Media, discuss the acquisition

As an executive in an acquired company I have agile principles to guide my actions:

  • Embrace change
  • Collaborate with the customer
  • Deliver value
  • Remove impediments

My career has included consolidation, closure, re-organizations, relocations, down-sizings and three acquisitions. In fact, none of my former employers exist as the same entity for which I started working.

Opportunities gird themselves in risk. Game on.

My management mission has not changed.
