McKinsey & Co, the management consultancy, will announce today that Dominic Barton, its Shanghai-based Asia head, has been chosen by his peers to take over as managing director.
McKinsey’s 400 senior partners elected Mr Barton to serve a three-year term when Ian Davis retires in June. He will be able to stand for re-election for a second and final three-year term in 2012.
