William Von Hoene
William Von Hoene, a 19-year veteran of Exelon and the company's leading strategist over the past decade, is leaving at the end of this month.
Von Hoene, 67, senior executive vice president and chief strategy officer, has been battling health issues for much of the past year. Last summer, he arranged with the company to retire at the end of 2022, but both parties left the timetable open.
Von Hoene came to Exelon in 2002 after two decades as a litigator at Jenner & Block. He quickly became a key lieutenant of former CEO John Rowe. When CEO Chris Crane succeeded Rowe in 2012, Von Hoene rose even higher. He’s been either the company’s second or third highest paid executive for years.
