Hill Holliday’s Mike Sheehan Gives Up Chairman Title
Posted in: UncategorizedHill Holliday’s Mike Sheehan is giving up his chairman title,at the Boston-based ad agency, according to parent Interpublic Group.
Mr. Sheehan moved into the chairman role this May after serving as CEO for ten years and working at the agency for almost 30 years. He said at the time that he’d stay on as chairman for a two-year stint. Long-time employee Karen Kaplan succeeded him as CEO. Now, only months after that appointment, Ms. Kaplan will take on the chairman title, serving as both chairman and CEO. Ms. Kaplan has worked at the firm for over 30 years.
The move will enable Mr. Sheehan to pursue his advisory and investment roles outside of Hill Holliday, the agency stated in a release. “We respect that Mike is increasingly focused on a growing number of endeavors outside of the agency,” said IPG CEO and Chairman Michael Roth in a statement. “We thank Mike for his contributions and wish him well in this new phase of his life and career.”
