Shares of Resources Connection Inc. (NASDAQ: RGP) rose more than 8% on Monday after the company announced a major leadership change. Board member Roger Carlile has been appointed as the new President and CEO, effective immediately.<\/p>\n
The company said that former CEO and President Kate Duchene is stepping down from her executive roles but will remain with RGP as an Executive Advisor through January 2026. This move is meant to ensure a smooth transition and steady leadership during the change.<\/p>\n
Carlile joined RGP\u2019s Board in June 2024 and became Chair of the Compensation Committee in August 2025. He brings decades of experience in consulting and business management. Before joining Resources Connection, he founded Ankura Consulting Group in 2014 and led it as CEO for five years, later serving as Board Chair for six years.<\/p>\n
RGP Chairperson A. Robert Pisano praised Carlile\u2019s strong background in financial and advisory services, noting that he has already been deeply involved in shaping the company\u2019s growth strategy, particularly around CFO advisory and digital transformation solutions.<\/p>\n
Before starting Ankura, Carlile held senior roles at FTI Consulting, including CFO, Chief Administrative Officer, and Chief Human Resources Officer. He also led KPMG\u2019s forensic services practice and worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers and Deloitte & Touche earlier in his career.<\/p>\n
The company described the leadership shift as part of a broader effort to accelerate its strategic transformation and expand its consulting services. Investors appeared optimistic about the move, as reflected in Monday\u2019s sharp stock jump.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
