This is your daily pension announcement: How does GOA select ATRF Board members? Let me count the ways edition.
Travis was giving an talk this past Monday morning at the Hotel MacDonald. It was at the invite of the Institute of Corporate Directors. He said some strange things...
First of all, let me remind you that the @FairmontMAC makes a wonderful breakfast. For $95 you could have joined various business luminaries for a meal and to hear Travis speak about the future of Agencys, Boards and Commissions in Alberta. #AbLeg #AbEd #handsoffmypension
Travis talked a lot, to a full house, about the OAG report (link below) on improving Board recruitment, including:
1. Working closely with Board Chairs to identify skills for appointments.
2. Reviewing Director evaluations for reappointments.

3. Ensure experienced, qualified directors are appointed.
4. “Will defer to Boards, not micro manage”
5. Good governance and strong, qualified directors are key; diversity is important, but qualifications come first.

The OAG report really does lay out the gold standard for recruiting and selecting board members for the ATRF and all others. This report was written to help fight cronyism.
In my opinion, Travis did not follow any of these recommendations of the @AuditorGenAB in this report when he appointed #petrosexual Rafi Tahmazian to the ATRF Board over two better qualified incumbents. #ouch
If you get a chance, ask him about this.
