Strategic Planning
FROM:
MAR-APR 2004 ISSUE
The main goal of CGA Yukon this year will be to develop a strategic plan to raise the profile of the designation and to increase student enrolment, says
Robert Fendrick, the affiliate president for
2003-04.
A CGA since 1991, Fendrick is currently the director of administrative services with the City of Whitehorse. Raised in Whitehorse, Fendrick stayed in Vancouver after university to begin his career with
BC Hydro in 1982. After several years with Hydro, Fendrick moved on to own and operate a computer company that employed
20 people. He received his designation in 1991, and returned to Whitehorse in 1998.
Fendrick holds a bachelor of commerce degree from the University of
British Columbia and a masters of public administration from the University of Alaska Southeast.
"I began my CGA as a requirement of employment with
BC Hydro and I believe strongly in promoting the designation," he says. "I decided to get very involved with the Association to make a difference," he adds.
Fendrick has been involved with the Association at the affiliate level for the last five years as
vice-president of
CGA Yukon. He now serves as the National Board Member from Yukon.
His spouse, Wendy Fendrick, is also a CGA. The couple met while they were both working for
BC Hydro, and have been married for
19 years. They have two sons — Stuart, 15, and
Kurtis, 12.
Serving on the board with Fendrick are: Michael McKay, CGA,
vice-president; Ladi Millard, CGA, director of Education Services;
Ludmila Ayzenberg, treasurer; and
Clarence Timmons, CGA,
Paule Senechal, CGA, and
Cheryl Horoscoe, CGA, governors.
