Barrick Builds Future Leadership
March 19 2021 - 7:55AM
Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:GOLD)(TSX:ABX) is building its
future leadership by injecting youth and diversity into its highly
experienced team, thus aligning it with technological advances as
well as the evolving expectations of a rapidly changing world, says
executive chairman John Thornton in the company’s
2020
Annual Report published today.
“A wide range of skills, experience, perspectives
and backgrounds will, we believe, foster continuing innovation,
equip us to deal effectively with opportunities, challenges and
risks, and draw us even closer to our stakeholders worldwide,” he
says.
“Barrick has a high-performance culture and, in
order to attract outstanding people who share our vision and
values, our compensation model is ownership-based. A broad spectrum
of our employees are shareholders, with a stake in the future
success of the company and a common interest with our other
investors.”
Thornton says Barrick has emerged even stronger
from a difficult year and has made significant progress since the
transformational merger with Randgold towards its goal of building
the world’s most valued gold company. There is still more to do,
however, and the company’s 5 and 10 year plans will keep management
focused on the attainment of the next set of goals.
