The Regina Exhibition Association Limited board announced Tim Reid is no longer with the organization in his previous position as president and chief executive.
According to a news release, Roberta Engel, who is the current corporate services vice-president, will be acting president and CEO or “PCEO.”
“The REAL board voted unanimously to remove Mr. Reid as PCEO,” the release read. “This leadership change is the next step in the formal review of the organization, which will focus on financial sustainability, organizational structure, operations, governance and strategic mandate.”
Niki Anderson of REAL Interim Board of Directors said the board had a meeting on Jan. 2 where a vote and decision was made to remove Reid.
“I think that as we kind of worked through the evolution of REAL and understanding that there has to be significant change,” said Anderson. “The board really believes that having a new set of eyes and new leadership would be helpful in that journey.”

“We felt it was really important as a board that the interim leader be someone that has familiarity with the organization and the skills to kind of follow through in this interim period,” said Anderson.
Anderson said the board thanks Reid for his work with REAL over nearly six years.
