The Chemours Company announced the appointment of Dawn L. Farrell to chairperson of the Board of Directors effective Jan. 1, 2022. Farrell currently serves as the company’s lead independent director and has been a member of the Board of Directors since the company’s founding.

“Dawn has been a champion for the best interests of Chemours and all its stakeholders,” said Mark Vergnano, chairman of the board of directors at Chemours. “As I reflect on this transition, I’m confident Dawn will continue her relentless dedication as the next chairperson of the board.”

Farrell is a retired energy industry executive and the past president and CEO of TransAlta Corporation. She spent much of her 35-year career in various leadership positions with TransAlta and BC Hydro.

Vergnano, who assumed chairmanship of the Board of Directors in July to facilitate a smooth leadership transition for the business, will continue to serve as a member of the board.
