Peter will support the transition through his retirement, and we wish him the best in his next chapter.&#8221;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&#8220;I am honored to take on this role and build on Emerson&#8217;s strong foundation of innovation to enhance our global automation leadership,&#8221; said Sengupta. &#8220;By infusing the tools our customers use every day with meaningful, data-driven intelligence, Emerson will help businesses move faster and make better-informed decisions.
