At this week’s SIMSA Board meeting, Ritu Malhotra was elected as SIMSA’s new Vice Chair commencing after our AGM on June 3, 2021. At that time our succession plan dictates that Rob Tebb’s term as Chair ends, Eric Lamontagne switches from Vice Chair to Chair, and then Ritu becomes Vice Chair (and in two years becomes Chair).
Ritu is President of March Consulting.
