Doyle replaces Mark Fiebrink, who announced his retirement in November of 2007 but agreed to stay until Feb. 1, 2008 to facilitate an orderly transition. Doyle joined Wausau as a SVP in 2004, and has served as Wausau's EVP for field operations since 2005. In that role, she had responsibility for all Wausau agent/broker divisions and Wausau Signature Agency.

"I look forward to this opportunity to lead Wausau at a very exciting time," Doyle says. "Under Mark Fiebrink's leadership, Wausau has done very well in the marketplace and is financially strong. Wausau's underwriting standards, market position and relationships with agents, brokers and policyholders will not change. As part of Commercial Markets, Wausau is  well-positioned to leverage the strengths of our group to continuously improve our middle market products and services."
