Gov. Kasich’s office announced Friday that he has chosen his former cabinet secretary, Tracy Intihar, to be the new executive director of the Office of Workforce Transformation and “oversee efforts to better align Ohio’s fragmented workforce training system with the needs of workers and job creators.” Intihar has 19 years of Ohio public policy experience, managing her own policy consulting businesses and having served in senior positions for two speakers of the Ohio House. She will work closely with the Governor’s Executive Workforce Advisory Board, which during its inaugural meeting two weeks ago, established an action plan to open formal communication between the board and the 20 Local Workforce Investment Board Chairs; establish a statewide rebranding effort for all One-Stop offices consistent with the OhioMeansJobs brand; develop a consistent, system-wide policy for Individual Training Accounts; and, advance a plan to use OhioMeansJobs as Ohio’s job-matching tool.
