"Eric is not joining Landus to reset the course, but to accelerate the progress already underway," said Tim Kolder, Landus board chair.
Heismeyer's early focus will be on aligning the organization with the new operating plan and collaborating with the core team and board.
The board engaged Medallion Partners to conduct the national search for the position.
