SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Genesys®, a global cloud leader in customer experience orchestration, today announced that Barry O’Sullivan, GM and Executive Vice President, will be departing the company after completing the foundation work for its Digital and AI business.

He leaves us with a strong foundation poised for growth and we wish him the best in his next adventure."
"I am grateful to have been a part of the Genesys journey as a pioneer to the Experience as a ServiceSM market and am looking forward to seeing the company continue to redefine the industry," said O’Sullivan. "With Genesys Digital and AI, we’ve built an engine of innovation within the company and are enabling organizations to transcend transactional customer interactions to deliver empathetic, orchestrated experiences."
