Motorola's Rick Osterloh on Staying the Course While Changing Hands (Full Video)

Rick Osterloh has a steady hand, a quality that was on full display during his appearance at the Code/Mobile conference.

Osterloh, who is the president of Motorola, has been guiding his company at a time of great transition, both in its products and in its corporate ownership. The company has been working to revamp its product line around a smaller array of low-cost smartphones and accessories such as the Moto 360 watch and Moto Hint handset.

Osterloh took the Code/Mobile stage on Oct. 28, just two days before Lenovo announced it had finalized the purchase.
