It's a "life transition," not retirement. Mr. Phillips:Morningstar ... today announced that Don Phillips will be stepping down as head of the company’s Research group after the first of the year. Haywood Kelly, currently head of equity, credit, and structured credit research, will assume Phillips’ responsibilities as global head of Research, effective Jan. 1, 2014. Phillips will be a managing director and remain a member of the board of directors. Both Phillips and Kelly will report to Joe Mansueto, founder, chairman, and CEO.
They describe Mr. Phillips as having "served in a variety of leadership roles at Morningstar." Indeed he has, though I'm not quite sure how to describe the trajectory of his career:I’ve often said that, to me, Morningstar is a cause as well as a company. I told Joe that I’d like to step back, but I still want to contribute to Morningstar’s success. He has always been incredibly supportive, and this time was no exception.
