Celebrating Ashley Morgan’s service and next chapter
After nearly 18 years with Alberta Municipalities (ABmunis), Ashley Morgan, Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer, has decided to step back from full-time executive leadership to create more space for her family and other priorities. Her final day in the office will be Thursday, December 24.
Since starting with Alberta Municipalities (known then as AUMA) as the Shared Services Research Assistant in 2008, Ashley has contributed significantly to the association as she advanced in her career. More recently, she has had a major leadership role on many impactful organizational initiatives. A short list includes:
- Overseeing the strategic planning process and implementation of our new strategic plan,
- Spearheading the brand change, and
- Established the Project Management Office and the Growth & Innovation department.
Ashley also led the development and execution of new products and services and managed the implementation of multiple software systems across the organization.
We are extremely grateful for Ashley’s many contributions, her exceptional leadership, and the strong relationships she has built with colleagues, members, and partners over the years. Throughout her career at ABmunis, she focused on cultivating a positive, team-oriented culture grounded in understanding, mutual respect, collaboration, and shared purpose. She has led by example, remained strong in difficult times, and has been personally invested in the lives and careers of those around her.
While we are sad to see Ashley leave, we respect and support her decision and wish her nothing but the very best in her next chapter.
Transition & Recruitment
Transition and recruitment planning is underway. Before her departure, Ashley will work with the Executive Officers and her team to transfer key responsibilities, strategic initiatives, and relationships. Existing leaders will maintain responsibility for these priorities and member service until a replacement is in place.
Recruitment for a replacement is expected to take several months. We will share updates as we can as recruitment progresses and leadership arrangements are confirmed.
