BOSTON - Dec. 17, 2020 - PRLog --

Leading NOW, the global advisor to organizations seeking to change mindsets, behaviors, and cultures to be inclusive for all, announces the appointment of Kelly Lockwood Primus as Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately.

Formerly the CEO & President of Leading Women, which was recently acquired by Leading NOW, Primus' extraordinary work growing Leading Women into a global organization with a focus on proprietary research was a key factor in her selection. The newly-merged organization sought a strong leader to propel the company's growth trajectory. The remainder of the organization's restructure will continue under her guidance.

"I am excited to have Kelly join our organization and take over the role of CEO," said Gretchen Sussman, Chief Commercial Officer of Leading NOW. "Her many years of experience in business and women's leadership development, along with the successful impact Leading Women's research and solutions have had globally, have proven Kelly to be an exceptional leader in the DE&I space, and the perfect person to lead our organization as we help clients reach their inclusive talent & culture goals."

"I'm honored to be selected and to have the opportunity to lead an organization where research is at the epicenter to creating transformative solutions," said Kelly Lockwood Primus. "As we utilize our unique approach and world-class research to expand our DE&I offerings to our clients, Leading NOW's global reach will extend beyond our current footprint and drive positive business outcomes for organizations who are focused on inclusion for all."
