CTA takes next step in succession plan by naming Laskowski president

The transition to new leadership at the Canadian Trucking Alliance moved one step closer as Stephen Laskowski, previously announced as successor to David Bradley when the latter steps down at the end of 2017, was officially named president of the Alliance at the CTA annual board meeting in Arizona last week.

Laskowski had served as CTA’s senior vice president for the past several years.

“This announcement is the next step in the process that was launched last fall,” said Bradley, who will retain the CEO title until the end of his tenure.

Gene Orlick, CTA chairman and president of Orlick Transport in Calgary, says the Alliance’s succession plan is going smoothly.

“We are fortunate to have someone like Stephen, with his experience and drive, already in the fold and ready to step up and assume responsibility for leading CTA into the future.”
