These roles are very strategic and will require significant experience in relationship building both inside and outside of government (at all levels). The ability to communicate across sectors, departments and internally are all key. Now more than ever, we need individuals who are open to working collaboratively instead of looking to build fiefdoms.

The secret will be to offer a competitive salary to attract the right person. Too often the pitch is "the salary is lower, but so is the cost of living". True at some point, but ambitous people are thinking about other possibilities and don't want to fall back so far that they can't move out of the region. Time to think of "one Canada", and not "many regions".

You mentioned the looming departure of CEO at ONB, where is she going?
