The Business Beat column is featured every Monday morning on PTBOCanada.
The Chamber’s Joel Wiebe is taking over the column beginning in the second week of January. Harrison’s upcoming column is his last Business Beat, as the following Mondays are Christmas and New Year's Day.
He assures that Wiebe is using the same format so little will change.
The recently-retired Harrison served as the Chamber’s CEO for 20 years since joining as a volunteer. He vows to continue his philanthropic work such as the annual Easter Seals Telethon, for which he has volunteered for the past 45 years.
Sarah Budd assumed the role of the Chamber’s president and CEO after Harrison announced his retirement. She formerly served as the CEO of Habitat for Humanity Peterborough.
“Thanks for all of you support over the years, helping to strengthen our local business community,” said Harrison in an e-mail.
