The Antigua and Barbuda Airport Authority (ABAA) has announce the appointment of Mrs. Wendy Francette-Williams as its new Chief Executive Officer, which took effect on August 1, 2024.
Mrs. Francette-Williams brings extensive experience to her new role, having previously served as the CEO of the Grenada Airport Authority for seven years.
With more than 36 years in the aviation industry, she is a seasoned aviation management executive ready to guide ABAA into its next phase.
Mrs. Francette-Williams, originally from Trinidad & Tobago, holds a Master of Science in Aviation Management.
In addition to her professional roles, she has also been a part-time lecturer at the University of the West Indies – St. Augustine Campus since 2009, contributing to their Master’s program in Aviation Management.
In her new capacity, Mrs. Francette-Williams will concentrate on improving operational efficiency and attaining strategic objectives for ABAA.
She is recognized for her strong belief in empowerment and ownership and has consistently shown dedication to creating positive and inclusive work environments.
The Board of Directors is confident that Mrs. Francette-Williams’ leadership will play a crucial role in driving the organization to new levels of success.
Well she certainly possessthe requisite knowledge carefully blend and mixed with e experience. I also find that professuonals who lecture at university level keep up-to-date with current trends and bring that critical thinking and acumen to bear to the job. What I didnt see in terms of knowledge is the operational skill-set in terms of risk management and in particular in the event of terrorism and other issues or emergent issues and strategic analysis in the event of emergencies. Anyone can steer a ship when the sea is calm! I do wish this expert all the very best and hope she will contribute to our UWI campus in Antigua and Barbuda
Nice
Great job Mrs Francette
What, they could not find a qualified Antiguan and Barbudan for the Airport CEO position?? Another yes woman for the Gaston administration. I see she has a lot of experience; however, I didn’t read anything mention of anti-terrorism skills which is very important when managing an international airport. Another thing, I thought you had to have a PhD to lecture at UWI or any university.
