Walgreens Boots Alliance names global chief communications officer
Walgreens Boots Alliance has a new head of its global internal, external and divisional communications. The company on Tuesday named Aaron Radelet global chief communications officer and senior vice president.
Chuck Greener, who has headed the company’s global communications and public affairs for the past roughly five years, will be focused primarily on public affairs as senior vice president and chief public affairs officer.
Radelet will be based at WBA’s Deerfield, Ill. headquarters, with his team overseeing media relations, employee communications, financial communications, digital communications and corporate events. He joins WBA from Hilton Worldwide, where he was chief communications officer and senior vice president, where over his eight-year tenure he led communications for the company’s IPO. He also has previously worked for Sprint Nextel, AOL Time Warner, MicroStrategy and Shandwick International.
“I am thrilled to be joining the world-class leadership team and communications organization at Walgreens Boots Alliance,” Radelet said. “WBA’s truly iconic brands have been serving communities for more than 170 years, and I am looking forward to working with the team to ensure all our key audiences hear about how successful the next chapters in our history will be.”
