Top Coca-Cola Media Exec Leaving Company
Posted in: Uncategorized
Annis Paschal Lyles, one of Coca-Cola’s top media executives, is leaving the company, according to people familiar with the matter.
Ms. Lyles, VP-connections planning and investment for North America, joined Coca-Cola in 1989 and is well-respected within the industry. Her departure comes as Coca-Cola begins implementing a cost-cutting plan that includes eliminating 1,600-1,800 positions in corporate, Coca-Cola North America and Coca-Cola International.
A Coca-Cola spokeswoman declined to comment on Ms. Lyles’ situation. The spokeswoman provided a statement on the recently announced job cuts, stating that “approximately 500 positions will be eliminated in Atlanta. It’s important to point out that while some positions will be eliminated, others will be created, and qualified associates will be considered for those new positions.”
