The Standard Group CEO, Marion Gathoga-Mwangi, has announced that she will be stepping down from her role, barely a year after she took over the group's leadership on July 15, 2024.

Announcing her planned exit in the latest newsletter to the media house employees, she cited personal circumstances as the motivation for her exit and revealed that the transition process had already begun. "To everything, however, there is a season, and a time for every purpose under the heavens.

In this respect, therefore, personal circumstances that I cannot overlook have informed my decision on my future with the company," she wrote. "Although I have not yet left, the transition has begun, and this may be the last newsletter I write to you.

As I take this step, I ask for your prayers and well wishes." Marion Gathoga during a past engagement.
