At Blackman Kallick in Chicago, Steven Schneider, 58, has been elected to succeed Daniel Fensin as MP, effective Jan. 1, 2008. They are serving as co-MPs through 2007. Fensin, MP for the past 17 years, will remain a partner until his retirement in Dec. 2008. In addition to his role as MP, Schneider will continue to serve as engagement partner for many of the firm’s clients. “(Steve’s) going to be outstanding,” Fensin says. “He has a six-year window (before mandatory retirement), and I think the partners chose him for stability over a time of immense change. He’s probably the last of our leadership group before the next generation.” BK has about 250 staff including 34 partners, and $50 million revenue as the largest Chicago-based local firm.
