“As we continue to grow and evolve our business by adding differentiated engagement models and solutions, we have committed to building clarity and driving focus around our three core business offerings of On-Demand Talent, Consulting, and Outsourced Services,” said Kate Duchene, CEO of RGP. “I’m pleased to welcome Mike to RGP as he takes on this important new role of leading our On-Demand Talent team.”
“I’d also like to congratulate Jon on his well-deserved promotion to lead our evolving consulting business that is bringing digital experience and functional expertise together,” Duchene added. “Along with Mairtini, Mike and Jon will help us develop and implement tailored strategies to optimize each unique business unit, foster cross-selling, and enhance our position in the marketplace.”
