Business Leaders meet new CEO

The Heart Foundation of Barbados recently took the opportunity to introduce their new CEO, Adrian Randall to the business community and to the press. The occasion was at a Breakfast Meeting, which was held at the Grand Barbados Beach Resort.

The good representation of business leaders was welcomed by president of the HFOB, Dru Symmonds SCM, J.P., while Rosalind Jackson, of Ernst & Young, who headed the CEO selection process, formally introduced Mr. Randall. Mrs. Jackson is also a director of the Board of the HFOB. She explained the requirements of the position and was happy that Mr. Randall fitted the bill perfectly. She said that he was ideally suited to take the organization to the next level.

“Adrian’s experience and his technical skills make him a sound choice” she said, “but his character and his zeal for the cause make him outstanding. We need to fasten our seat belts because of expected turbulence as we break into higher heights.”

Mr. Randall told the audience of plans for the future direction of the HFOB. He said that in keeping with the goal of providing best quality advice, training and management of cardiovascular prevention and care the HFOB will assess ways in which the CDP&R programme can be extended to reach even more individuals.

He also indicated that the Foundation would be reintroducing in 2005 the Business and Professional Seminar which was last held in 2003.

Among the exciting initiatives to be undertaken by the HFOB, noted Mr. Randall, will be a national television media campaign, in partnership with AT&T, aimed at providing information and know how on heart disease prevention. The New Year will also see the launching of the HFOB updated website, he said.

Mr. Randall thanked the many members of corporate Barbados who had given generous support to the Heart Foundation, and he looked forward to working with them in the future.
