Just over a year ago, OBJ formed an editorial advisory board to help us understand the dynamics of various sectors of the economy and get views on issues important to the business community.
Since that time, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting with the board a number of times throughout the year. The input of board members has formed the basis of many great stories and allowed us to reflect a range of perspectives throughout the city.
At the end of the one-year cycle, we’ve had a few members step away and others join us. I’d like to thank the outgoing members for their invaluable contributions, and welcome four new members:
