Columbus Partnership CEO Transition

Columbus Partnership is searching for a new CEO after Jason Hall, who took the helm just last January, steps down in June to return to St. Louis. Hall follows Kenny McDonald, who resigned in September 2024 — a revolving door at the top. Hall’s background in St. Louis economic development aligns with the region’s needs. Co-chairs Kirt Walker and Steve Steinour praised Hall’s impact on jobs and investment, and are confident in Corrine Burger, the interim CEO with 34 years at JPMorgan Chase and deep local ties. The Partnership, founded in 2002 by Les Wexner and John F. Wolfe, includes 82 local CEOs focused on economic growth — and will launch a full search for Hall’s permanent successor.
