The Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors has announced the departure of Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Alison Dantes, which became effective on July 19, 2012. Alison has accepted an offer for a CEO position with another federal professional association in the healthcare sector. The OAND notes that Alison made a tremendous contribution to this association and the profession over the past six years and states that she will surely be missed. Alison successfully led the OAND through many impressive accomplishments and in years to come, these new directions led by Alison will be viewed as a turning point for naturopathic doctors in Ontario. The Board and staff of the OAND wishes Alison all the very best. With a strong OAND staff team and an interim operational leadership structure in place reporting directly to the Board, the Board is now actively engaged with an executive recruitment firm and ensures OAND members that the right competency and capabilities are brought back into the CEO position for the next phase of growth and advancement.
