Fortive - Anyone tracking leadership changes/strategic shifts?

Lately, I've been feeling a bit of a disconnect between the public narrative and what I'm seeing on the ground at Fortive. We've been hearing a lot about innovation and growth, which is great, but are there any subtle signs of strategic shifts that might precede bigger announcements? I've noticed a few senior leaders moving around in my division, and some projects that seemed like priorities a few months ago are suddenly being de-emphasized. It's not enough to raise major alarms, but it's definitely making me wonder what the long-term vision looks like and if everyone fits into it. Just looking for some perspective here. Is anyone else paying close attention to these kinds of internal movements or strategic pivots? Trying to get a sense of the overall direction and whether it aligns with continued growth for everyone, or if it's more of a 'streamlining' phase. Curious to hear if anyone else is picking up on similar vibes.

I've seen similar things in my area. There's definitely a quiet restructuring happening, but it's hard to say if it's a major strategic pivot or just normal operational adjustments. The leadership churn you mentioned is also a bit unsettling – hopefully, it signals a sharpening of focus rather than instability. It will be interesting to see how these internal shifts translate into external messaging in the coming quarters.

Interesting observation. I haven't directly seen the project de-emphasis, but the leadership movement does align with what I've been hearing through informal channels. My take is that they might be consolidating certain business units or divesting from underperforming ones to better align with their core strengths. The focus on 'innovation' could be a smokescreen for these more significant internal reorganizations. Keep an eye on their M&A activity for clues.
