Elliot Sigal, Bristol-Myers Squibb chief, R&D

Bristol-Myers Squibb is rearranging the top of its org chart. The biggest change: Bristol tapped COO Lamberto Andreotti (photo), 58, as president and COO, and added him to the board of directors. That's raising speculation that Andreotti is also the chosen heir to CEO Jim Cornelius (photo). Meanwhile, the company created a senior leadership council that comprises Cornelius, Andreotti, CFO Jean-Marc Huet (photo) and Chief Scientific Officer and R&D chief Elliot Sigal (aobe). "This group will chart the future for Bristol-Myers Squibb," Cornelius said in a company statement.
