What's in a name?

I see Kent County Council has appointed as Group Managing Director Katherine Kerswell , currently Chief Executive Officer, Northamptonshire County Council. Her salary will be £197,000 per annum, which is rather less than quite a few professional footballers earn is a week. Just shows how barmy football finances are.

I am curious as to why the new GMD is not to have the title of CEO as held by the person she is replacing. Does it mark a shift in duties and/or relationships and if so what are the changes and the reasoning behind them? If not, why change the title? Perhaps the Great Leader will enlighten us, after all it is being done in our name and with our money.
