Two leaders will resign, one reconsiders

Dr. Charles Peck (pictured above) says he is stepping down as CEO of Piedmont Athens Regional Medical Center. Dr. Peck, who has headed the hospital on Prince Avenue since 2013, says he will stay on through the end of May while a successor is found. He’s leaving the hospital to join a private consulting group. “When he joined, the independent Athens Regional Health System was dealing with significant operational, financial and employee engagement challenges. In a short period of time, Chuck’s leadership helped stabilize the system and point it in the right direction,” says Piedmont Health Systems CEO Kevin Brown in a news release.

Dan Kaufman says his last day of president of the Gwinnett County Chamber of Commerce will be June 30. Kaufman has headed the Gwinnett Chamber since 2013.

First he announced his resignation as Mayor of Bowersville; now Jim Jordan says he’s had a change of heart and will stay on as mayor of the city in Hart County.
