Expressing his gratitude for the appointment, Chief Teete stated, "My predecessors have laid a solid foundation for CILT to continue to be a leading voice for every professional in our industry.
"I, therefore, see my role as the Conductor of a seasoned orchestra, and I will work diligently to ensure that every instrument can play its part in creating the harmonious song that will propel us to the next level."
Following the appointment, Chief Teete Owusu-Nortey is joined by the new President-Elect, Jan Steenberg FCILT, who has been an integral part of CILT since 1995.
