Choose Chicago, the city’s tourism promoter, said Wednesday it is not renewing the contract of its president and CEO, David Whitaker.
Whitaker’s five-year agreement expires July 6, the group said. It said the decision to not renew the contract was mutual.
“Given his leadership and accomplishments over the last five years, the Executive Committee asked David to remain through the full period of the agreement, and David has agreed to stay through his full term,” said Cynthia McCafferty, a spokeswoman for the group. “During this time, David will continue to work with the Choose Chicago senior leadership team in advancing and implementing the 2021 Strategic Plan and ensuring a smooth and seamless transition.”
