Eva Maria Bieda will be Skyguide’s new Chief Communications and Public Affairs Officer as of 1 June 2024. For the past three years, she has led the organisational change management, communications and training team at F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd as part of the company-wide ERP implementation programme.
