Jones Takes Command Of Skyview Networks
• Skyview Networks has completed an ownership transition, with President & CEO Steve Jones now assuming full leadership control of the company. Jones joined Skyview as Pres./COO in April 2019 after more than three decades with ABC News, rising to VP/GM of ABC Radio.
Jones shared this latest news in a companywide memo that reads, in part, “This transition further strengthens long-term direction and focus that ensures continuity. Our leadership team will continue exemplifying our company values, and our day-to-day priorities remain centered on client outcomes, operational excellence and teamwork.
It is also important to recognize Ken Thiele, who founded the company 30 years ago. He asked me to share a message with all of you: ‘First and foremost, I want to thank you all. Skyview Networks exists, and is respected across the industry, because of the talent, grit and customer commitment each of you bring every day. Since joining Skyview Networks, Steve has expanded our business portfolio and led with a steady focus on growth and stability. It is with this confidence in leadership that Skyview’s trajectory and momentum continues.’
Jones added, “I am grateful to Ken for his trust and vision over the past seven years. I also want to acknowledge and thank additional shareholders, Diana Chamberlain and Dave Dickson, for their support throughout this process and their continued engagement with Skyview Networks in an advisory capacity.
On a personal note, I am proud of the team that has built and sustained Skyview Networks’ reputation across the industry. This company is special because of you. Serving as the leader of Skyview Networks is a responsibility I take seriously, and I am committed to continue leading with transparency, respect and a long‑term focus on our people and business.”
