During his tenure, Burian helped double the revenue generated by the Chicago office by diversifying the client base and industries supported by the office. Focusing on operational excellence, he also led a partner group in transforming the processes and culture of the office. Burian currently serves as a member of the CohnReznick Executive Board.
“It has been a great privilege to be part of CohnReznick for 15 years and to help it grow geographically, financially, and as a preferred workplace in our industry,” said Klenovich. “With Jason taking on my role as Regional Managing Partner – South/West, I am confident the region and the firm are in great hands as we continue to seek out opportunities for our clients and our people.”
“I want to thank our Executive Board and firm leadership for entrusting me to help guide the path forward for our expanding South/West region,” said Burian. “As CohnReznick continues to diversify our industries and services, there are so many ways we can support businesses with operations and interests in this very large region of the country. “George has been a wonderful mentor and friend, and I am honored that he played a key role in the decision to offer me this outstanding opportunity.”
CohnReznick CEO David Kessler added, “I’ve been honored to work closely with George over the past 15 years. He has had a wonderful career, is a great strategic thinker, and his wisdom and business acumen has helped propel us forward in our South/West Region and as a firm.
