David Wan is retiring as CEO of Harvard Business Publishing, a subsidiary of Harvard Business School, in June. Senior executive v-p and chief product innovation officer Josh Macht will be acting CEO while the publisher conducts a search for a new CEO.
Wan joined Harvard Business Publishing in 2002 and transformed the organization into a global leader in the practice of management, growing revenues from approximately $90 million to $270 million, the publisher said. In a statement, Harvard Business School senior associate dean Das Narayandas said that Wan "successfully led the publishing company's higher education, corporate learning, and Harvard Business Review groups through truly seismic market shifts to offer our global clients award-winning content, services, and solutions for real strategic impact. Most of all, his partnership with the School has ensured the extension of our mission to leaders around the globe and throughout the arc of their careers."
Macht joined the company in 2006 as managing director, new publishing ventures, and held several positions before taking his current role.
