Selection process

The selection of strong Board members is critical for successful governance. The Nominating and Corporate Governance (NCG) Committee (PDF) assists the Board in carrying out its responsibilities by reviewing corporate governance and nomination issues and making recommendations to the Board as appropriate. All of the NCG Committee members are independent (PDF).

One responsibility of the NCG Committee pursuant to the NCG Committee Mandate (PDF) is to identify individuals qualified to become Board members and recommend potential new Board members.

The NCG Committee seeks to ensure the Board has a sufficient range of skills, expertise and experience to allow the Board to carry out its mandate and functions effectively. The NCG Committee receives and evaluates suggestions for candidates from individual directors, the CEO and from professional search organizations.
