A subset of the AESO Board and Executive held 1:1 meetings with interested senior-level executive stakeholders during June 1-2, 2023.

Purpose

The purpose of the first set of consultations is to engage senior executive stakeholders in one-on-one discussions with a subset of AESO Board and Executive members to share their insights on what they believe the AESO should be focusing on in the year to come. These discussions will take place in advance of the budget development cycle and have a more strategic focus. These discussions will be foundational to the AESO as we consider stakeholders’ insights and expertise to determine the focus areas and associated priorities for 2024.
