Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music After an extensive round of layoffs last week that saw some 170 people leaving the company, Atlantic Music Group has unveiled the new leadership structure that will be in place when new CEO Elliot Grainge takes the helm from longtime chief Julie Greenwald next week.
