Philippe Dauman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Viacom, said, ?A talented, energetic, and committed workforce is our greatest asset and one of the most important drivers of our success.

This capacity, along with Scott?s knowledge of our company and his enthusiasm and commitment, will be of enormous benefit to Viacom?s increasingly global, immensely talented and creative employee base.

Her hard work as a positive agent of change has enhanced our culture and helped us maintain and expand our reputation as a great place to work.

We thank her and wish her all the best.?

Scott has successfully managed nearly every important area of BET, including its digital, sales and business operations, which gives him unique and valuable insights in his new role at Viacom. I am confident he will help us further energize our vibrant workforce and enhance our culture of innovation and excellence.?
