Catalyst Paper Announces CEO's Departure:Catalyst Paper's President and CEO Kevin J. Clarke will step down from his position later this spring. Clarke has advised Catalyst’s Board of Directors that, with the company’s recent financial restructuring successfully completed, the time is right for a leadership transition.
Lederer also added Clarke's printing and publishing industry experience was also helpful in advancing product and market development objectives, and served to put Catalyst on better footing to address the ongoing challenges of the fiercely competitive paper and pulp industry. Clarke will continue in his role for an interim period through June 2013 to assist in a smooth transition. He plans to return to his home in New York State, where his family resides. A search for his successor is underway.
