USA Cycling, the national sanctioning body for cycling competition, has retained the executive recruitment firm Korn Ferry to assist in the search for a new CEO to succeed Steve Johnson, who announced last month that he will step down from his post this fall.
 
“Korn Ferry is a top-notch search firm,” said Bob Stapleton, chairman of USA Cycling's board of directors. “They have staffed this effort with excellent people and the search is underway. Together we look to have an outstanding new CEO on board by this summer for a period of transition with Steve leading up to the UCI World Championships in September.”
