Emmanuel Ligner
CEO Ligner's "exceptional commercial skills" and "deep bioprocessing knowledge" make him an excellent match for Avantor's acute need for a commercial catalyst to navigate its crisis.
Sources say his proven record of top-line growth at GE is contrasted by a "strong aversion to rigid operational processes" during a contentious tenure at Danaher.
Ligner will prioritize an aggressive commercial turnaround to reignite growth, while delegating cost-cutting details, making his weaknesses a "manageable risk" for Avantor.
