Shanker Out, Litterick In as CEO of EnsembleIQ

[caption id="attachment_170775" align="alignright" width="150"] Jennifer Litterick[/caption] EnsembleIQ's board of directors has appointed Jennifer Litterick as the company's next CEO, effective immediately, marking the third leadership change at the Chicago-based B2B publisher since its formation in 2016 from the merger of three formerly separate companies. Litterick replaces David Shanker, who joined EnsembleIQ as CEO in February 2018 after his predecessor, then-CEO Peter Hoyt, exited months earlier in a move also initiated by the board. Created in February 2016 when private equity firm RFE Investment Partners acquired and merged a pair of legacy B2B publishers—Edgell Communications and Stagnito Business Information—the combined company was first led by former Stagnito COO Kollin Stagnito for about four months until July 2016, when RFE acquired a third B2B media company—the Path to Purchase Institute—merged it with the other two, installed Path to Purchase CEO Hoyt as its new top executive and then rebranded the entire operation as EnsembleIQ. A rep for EnsembleIQ didn't immediately respond to a request for comment on the departure of Shanker, who spent much of his 18-month tenure attempting to integrate the three formerly disparate companies as well as subsequent acquisitions from Rogers Media and Lebhar-Friedman. Longtime B2B media exec Alan Glass, who had served as EnsembleIQ's executive chairman from the start, passed away on Friday at age 70, according to an... Continue reading at 'Folio Magazine'
