BOD Re-Addresses Conflict of Interest

At my request, the OSCAR Board of Directors re-addressed the conflict of interest issue during the January 2010 meeting. The issue involves the fact that my husband, Manny Malolos, is the current Interim Association Executive. To protect the membership from possible risks, the BOD voted to allow the Treasurer, Jerry Kelley, to take over all financial responsibilities from the President. The BOD also voted to allow President-Elect, Tim Weisheyer, to have direct supervision of the Interim AE.

Manny Malolos was hired by the BOD prior to the news that I had to step up to the 2010 OSCAR President position. Manny has an extensive business and management background, having retired at age forty-three as the Country Manager (Philippines) of Sandvik AB, a Multi-National Engineering and Specialty Steel company with 30% global market share during his employment.

Manny is on a limited contract with OSCAR while the AE Search Committee is tasked with hiring a permanent AE.
