Summary
Roger Lynch said Wednesday he is stepping down as Condé Nast chief executive after more than seven years to become chairman and CEO of Mattel.
Condé Nast said Lynch will remain on its board while director Mike Perlis takes over as interim CEO and the board starts a search for a permanent successor.
In a memo to staff, Lynch said the publisher had been reshaped into a unified global company, with event revenue up ninefold since 2020 and digital subscription revenue up 155%.
The leadership change comes at the publisher of Vogue, Vanity Fair and GQ as it weighs how to build on that transformation under new management.
