"Executives in charge of developer relations and business outreach at Research In Motion have left the company," Alastair Sharp reports for Reuters.
"Tyler Lessard, the company's senior vice-president for global alliances and developer relations, 'is moving on to pursue other interests,' RIM said in a statement on Thursday," Sharp reports. "A source with direct knowledge of the situation told Reuters that Jeff McDowell, senior vice-president for platform marketing and alliances, left the company two months ago."
Sharp reports, "RIM has witnessed a stream of high-profile departures from its developer relations and marketing teams in recent months and in July it said it was slashing about 11 percent of its workforce due to falling sales and profit. Mike Kirkup, a director of developer relations, resigned in August. RIM's head of marketing, Keith Pardy, left in March, just ahead of the PlayBook launch, and two of his staff later exited for jobs with Samsung, a fierce rival whose phones and tablets use Google's Android system. A chief operating officer, Don Morrison, resigned in July after taking a medical leave."
