Now, we carry the weight and responsibility to select one shareholder from more than 50 applicants to complete Ross’s term through 2020. The entire board is committed to a clear selection process. The board’s nominations committee will complete a thorough review process for each candidate and narrow the list to provide the board final candidates for consideration. Those candidates will complete a nominations packet and be interviewed by members of the nominations committee. Only then will a final decision be made.
Sealaska is on an exciting path. Our businesses are shifting focus to improve ocean health and marine ecosystems. Our commitment to responsible, sustainable businesses that account for people and the planet will define our future. We are proud that these businesses are financially strong and able to make consistent and meaningful contributions to efforts our shareholders care about. Whether you are on the board or not, your voice as a shareholder matters. Continue to stay engaged with us. Together, we can create a promising future.
Joe Nelson, Sealaska Board Chair
