Fallon Promotes a Pair in Account Management

Added Managerial Level Intended to Further Fortify the Agency
CHICAGO–Fallon McElligott continues its efforts to solidify its next generation of leadership with the promotions of Rich Stoddart and Mike Buchner to director positions.
Stoddart, who joined the Minneapolis agency from Leo Burnett, Chicago, in 1995, was named director of account management. He will be responsible for the department’s overall vision, including senior staff training and development, strategic counsel for existing clients and new-business development.
At Fallon, Stoddart has worked on several high-profile accounts, including Miller Lite, which was pulled from the shop earlier this year.
“Since coming here, Rich has established himself as a leader and helped build the department as we’ve continued to grow,” said Eric Block, the agency’s general manager.
