Christopher Alexander

Occupation:
In September 2010, Alexander will begin his tenure as Scotiabank Caribana’s chief administrative officer (CAO), with a goal to further refine the organization’s managerial structure and business processes.

Contribution:
Alexander’s designation as the imminent CAO has energized a new generation of Caribana participants who look forward to the evolution of the festival in future years.

Inspiration:
“I was born in the Caribbean and Caribana is something that puts us on the map. It literally does that for us. It is a Caribbean-based festival and it is one of the largest in North America. It’s inspiring to see that as a community we can put on something like this and it can be at a high level and professional manner.”
