Sheridan decides to stick around as Ballard CEO
You might recall back in October a post I had about Ballard Power chairman John Sheridan temporarily taking on the job of CEO after the resignation of Dennis Campbell. At the time I speculated that Ballard, after conducting an executive search for a permanent CEO, would likely ask Sheridan to stay on. After that post I got a polite e-mail from Ballard telling me that my speculation was unfounded and that Sheridan had no intention of staying on permanently.
So it was with great delight when Ballard announced today that Sheridan will indeed be staying on as permanent CEO and president. I wonder if there’s a finder’s fee in it for me?
