Joakim Landholm, Executive Vice President Transformation, is to leave SAS in
August 2015. Joakim Landholm has decided to leave in association with the
imminent dissolution of the Transformation Department he has successfully
headed. The department will be integrated into the regular line organization.
“Joakim Landholm has been key to the comprehensive transformation SAS has
undergone in recent years to become a more modern, adaptable and competitive
airline. I would like to extend a warm thank you to Joakim for the enormous
efforts he has made and for what he has achieved for SAS,” says Rickard
Gustafson, President and CEO of SAS.

Joakim Landholm joined SAS in January 2012 when he was appointed Executive Vice
President Commercial.

In association with the escalation of measures to create a more competitive SAS
in summer 2014, Joakim Landholm was tasked as Executive Vice President
Transformation with creating and managing a department solely focused on
improving efficiency and structural changes.

Following 12 months very intensive work, the Transformation Department can now
be dissolved. The structural changes this will entail will be announced after
standard union information.
