They had laid out a carefully crafted succession plan that would entrust the leadership of the then-$170 billion private equity and alternative asset manager to Glenn Youngkin, a 23-year U.S. and European buyout vet within Carlyle, and Kewsong Lee, a two-decade Warburg Pincus partner the company had scooped up in 2013.
