CHICAGO (PRWEB) March 06, 2018 -- West Monroe Partners, a national business and technology consultancy, today announced the appointment of seven new directors. In addition, the firm has promoted eight current directors to new roles.

That is so critical, in fact, that we recently refreshed our mission to focus on developing the next generation of West Monroe leaders,” said Kevin McCarty, CEO and president. “These director appointments and promotions reflect the expanded leadership opportunities that strong growth affords, but also outstanding individual contributions. While our new and promoted directors fulfill very different roles and responsibilities within our organization, each one exemplifies what we envision in that next generation of leaders.”
