White Plains, NY - Charles G. McCurdy, CEO of GLM Holdings, will also take on the CEO role for George Little Management (GLM) at the operating company level, the company announced today. Doug Smith, formerly CFO of Education Dynamics, will become GLM's CFO and chief administrative officer at both the holding company and operating company levels. Alan Steel, president of GLM, Jeff Little and senior vice president Jack Withiam will be leaving the firm after advising McCurdy and Smith during a transitional period.
GLM Holdings was formed by Providence Equity Partners as part of its acquisition of GLM from The Daily Mail & General Trust, which was completed at the end of September. GLM produces the New York Intl. Gift Fair, the National Stationery Show and 13 other events.
McCurdy said in a statement, "Alan, Jeff and Jack were foundational leaders of GLM and instrumental in building it into the successful business and industry leader it is today. Over the years they have had the foresight to make the right strategic choices to allow the company to grow and prosper and continue to provide superior solutions to our customers. We wish them well in their new endeavors."
Said Steel, "Jeff, Jack and I are proud of the great company we have created in GLM. Now that we have successfully guided the company through the recession and managed the successful sale to Providence Equity, we are handing off the stewardship of the company to new leadership. We wish Charlie, Doug and Providence the best of success with GLM."
McCurdy most recently served as CEO of Canon Communications, a producer of trade shows, publications, and digital and data services.
