The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that ambitious young executives are beating down Dawn Farrell's door to win positions at the Calgary-based Major Projects Office. The Globe's inside poopmeister Andrew Willis writes that in a refreshing sign that the next generation of business leaders believe in the political process and in Canada, reams of 20- to 30-year-olds with finance, legal or natural resource experience are firing their résumés into the inbox of the newly launched federal agency responsible for fast-tracking nation-building infrastructure. The slots are also coveted by dozens of candidates eligible for secondment, including some working for miners, pipeline operators, oil and gas producers, law firms, and investment banks. The job's attraction is being able to spend the next few years getting big things done with Ms. Farrell, who built a reputation for doing just that as chief executive officer at power producer TransAlta and the Trans Mountain Pipeline, one of the largest infrastructure projects in the country's history. Those selected can look forward to spending the rest of their careers dining out on the experience. They just cannot expect too many meals with the down-to-business boss.
