Maritime Aquarium CEO Maureen Hanley Fired After Three Months on the Job
|
After only three months on the job, the Maritime Aquarium’s new chief executive officer, Maureen Hanley, was fired, the organization announced on Monday. The aquarium announcement said it would not say why Hanley’s employment was terminated: “Because this is a matter of aquarium personnel, more details will not be made public.” The Norwalk Hour reported: “Prior to media inquiries on Monday, Hanley had still been listed as president and CEO on both her Linkedin page and the aquarium’s website.” The newspaper reported that Dave Sigworth, a spokesman for the aquarium, would not even say why the announcement of Hanley’s termination was delayed until Monday, when the newspaper asked about it. The aquarium’s announcement (published in full, below) came more than six weeks after Hanley was let go from the position, which she had held for almost exactly 90 days
Between the time that past aquarium President Brian Davis left the job and Hanley’s hiring, the CEO duties were shared between a group of people who will now do the same thing again: Dave Truedson, chief operating officer; John Joyce, the aquarium’s chief financial officer; and the aquarium’s Board of Trustees.
