Effective as of Jan. 28, 2026, Bill Wood has stepped down as president and chief executive officer of Sylogist, and the board of directors has appointed Craig O'Neill as interim president and chief executive officer. Mr. Wood has also resigned from the company's board of directors. The board thanks Mr. Wood for his leadership and contributions during a period of meaningful evolution for the company.
"It has been a privilege to lead Sylogist and to work alongside such a talented team," said Mr. Wood. "I'm proud of what we've accomplished together in laying the foundation for the future success of Sylogist."
Mr. O'Neill is an experienced builder of SaaS (software-as-a-service) businesses that aligns well with the company's existing strategy and operational priorities.
