Plano, TX (July 1, 2014) - Cinemark Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CNK), one of the worlds leading motion picture exhibitors, announces the formation of a new Chairmans Advisory Committee. The concept was created by Cinemarks Founder and Chairman, Lee Roy Mitchell. The objective of the program is to provide innovative input and feedback to Cinemarks management team, as well as create a learning environment where the committee members can gain valuable business experience.
Our committee members will represent the best and brightest young leaders in the DFW area and beyond, states Lee Roy Mitchell, Cinemarks Founder and Chairman. These individuals will have the opportunity work with me and learn how to conduct business in todays corporate environment in an honest and ethical manner. My vision is that the program will be mutually beneficial to both Cinemark and our committee members.
The Chairmans Advisory Committee will be comprised of ten members who are not Cinemark employees. They will serve a two-year term and meet five times a year to work alongside Mr. Mitchell and others on the Cinemark management team. Candidates will be selected through a competitive application and interview process and should have already achieved some recognizable leadership milestones in their lives. Applicants should be prepared to provide examples of leadership and demonstrate special skills, qualifications and accomplishments they have acquired from school, employment, volunteer work, or through other activities, including hobbies or sports.
Interested individuals may check qualifications and obtain an official application by visiting cinemark.com/cac.
