Business Restructuring

In line with this, Xerox has outlined three key priorities and intended outcomes of the Reinvention, focusing on its Core Print Business, Global Business Services, and IT and Digital Services.

Moreover, the company has promptly redesigned and realigned its executive team to bolster strategic execution.
