“With 32 years experience in a large multinational organization, Sally would be a valuable addition to our Board,” says Allan Davis, Independent Chairman of Boyd’s Board of Trustees. “As the Boyd Group has grown to over 300 centres in multiple markets, it is important that the strengths and skills of the Board are broadened and diversified. Sally’s unique perspective will be important as the Board continues to work with Management to plan strategies for the future that will sustain ongoing profitable growth”
