Coleman will complete his term as Mayor at the end of the year, and will join Ice Miller as the Director of Business and Government Strategies on January 1.
“Michael Coleman is a national figure who has transformed a city through partnerships between business and government during 16 years as mayor of Columbus,” stated Ice Miller Managing Partner Richard Barnhart in a release issued today. “We are proud and fortunate to have him join Ice Miller after his historic tenure as mayor.”
