Lisa Atherton, chief operating officer of Textron‘s (NYSE: TXT) Bell subsidiary, has been chosen to lead the helicopter manufacturer as president and CEO.
Her promotion is effective April 28 and she will succeed Mitch Synder, who will retire from Bell after nearly two decades of service, Textron said Monday.
