McDonald’s CEO and President Steve Easterbrook left his role in the company on Sunday after he revealed in an email to employees that he had engaged in a consensual relationship with an employee, which is a violation of company rules.
“I engaged in a recent consensual relationship with an employee, which violated McDonald’s policy,” Easterbrook wrote. “This was a mistake.”
Immediately following the announcement, McDonald’s named Chris Kempczinski to be the new President and CEO of the company.
Kempczinski succeeds Steve Easterbrook, who has separated from the Company following the Board’s determination that he violated company policy and demonstrated poor judgment involving a recent consensual relationship with an employee.
