Michael Smith has served as the Senior Vice President,
Information Technology and Chief Information Officer of The Estee Lauder
Companies since August of 2017. Michael Smith took the position after a one-year
sabbatical that he took to spend more time with his son before he went off to
college, and he says he couldn’t be happier with the decision.
Estee Lauder CIO and SVP Michael Smith was interviewed in
mid-2018 regarding his sabbatical and previous career experience.
“During the 3+ years I was
at Mylan in Pittsburgh, PA, my family was back in Portland, OR. Although I was
able to visit often, I decided that the best thing for me and my family at the
time was to resign from Mylan and take a one-year sabbatical so that I could be
present for my son’s senior year in high school,” he explained. “It was a special year for me and especially
for my son.”
