THE WHAT? Mary Kay has announced the appointment of Ryan Rogers as Chief Executive Officer, starting January 1, 2023.
THE DETAILS Rogers is the third generation of his grandmother Mary Kay Ash’s family and his father Richard R Rogers.
Current Chairman and Chief Executive Officer David Holl will retire at the end of the year following a nearly 30-year career with Mary Kay. Holl will remain Chairman of the Board.
