Mary Kay Inc., a cosmetics company known for rewarding its best-performing salespeople with pink Cadillacs, named Richard Rogers chief executive to let him be more involved in the company his mother started.
Rogers, the son of founder Mary Kay Ash, replaces John Rochon, who left to pursue family-related business opportunities, spokeswoman Shannon Summers said. Rogers, 58, will take on the CEO's responsibilities in addition to his role as chairman. Ash remains chairwoman emeritus, Summers said.
