Dear Study Commission Members,
Thank you for soliciting public comment on selection of the communication strategist.
My time is very short but I thought it important to provide my feedback after reviewing the
communication strategist candidates. I have reviewed the available video and written
documents. I am a proponent of selecting Andrew Thomas for the following reasons:
Professional experience
Resident of Montana
Ability to quickly travel to Bozeman to support project
Demonstrated understanding of the core and subtle facets of developing a
successful survey and public engagement
I have decades of experience in leadership (engineering) positions within a global
transportation company. We engaged many consulting companies over the years to
assess our products, customer experience, and corporate culture ahead of major
initiatives. Based upon my experience, hands-down, I would select Andrew Thomas for
the Communication Strategist.
Sincerely,
Aaron Nelson
