Walton
Published: Sep 19, 2008
Australia - Chris Walton, CEO of MindShare Australia, is leaving the media agency after a 12-year stint to spend more time with his family.
Walton, a former head of MindShare in Shanghai, has overseen good growth for the agency's Australian operations, which he has led for the past five years.
Ashutosh Srivastava, CEO of MindShare Asia-Pacific, said Walton had made a "very valuable contribution" to the agency over the last 12 years in Australasia, China and across Asia Pacific.
Walton will not be replaced in the CEO role, with Melbourne-based MindShare COO John Petropoulos and MindShare Sydney managing director Tracie Michael to share management duties.
