Pearson,
the world’s leading learning company, is today announcing a new organization
structure and the appointment of a new leadership team. The changes are
designed to accelerate Pearson’s push into digital learning, education services
and emerging markets, which the company views as significant growth
opportunities.
Under
the new structure, Pearson will organize around three global lines of business
– School, Higher Education and Professional – and three geographic market
categories – North America, Growth and Core.
The Financial Times is
being subsumed into a new division by its parent company, Pearson.
As part of the organisation's restructure, the FT Group will disappear and the newspaper will become part of a unit called "professional". Its chief executive will be John Ridding, who is currently CEO of the FT group.
