Friday, February 21, 2020
Next Friday, February 28 is the deadline to submit your name for consideration as a board-endorsed candidate in 2020.
Great teamwork is generating great results. Sealaska is continuing to achieve record-breaking financial performance because of our commitment to continuous improvement and teamwork. In 2016, the board adjusted its nomination process for incumbents as part of its own continuous improvement and teamwork strategy. Since then, a number of new directors have joined the team both as independent and endorsed candidates.
We are looking for leaders! This year the board is looking for one or two new directors to join the board as endorsed candidates. We are also looking for independent candidates, board youth advisor candidates, and we will be looking for Shareholder Participation Committee members.
#OneSealaska. Whether you serve as a director, a board youth advisor, a participation committee member, or a voting shareholder, we are in this together as OneSealaska.
