Thanks for raising this.
I had also requested an OIA and only received false information.
Tracey has herself mentioned in her introduction speech to KO staff that she was informally offered the role.
The response you will receive through this OIA will however be that she was recruited through a Recruitment agency.
Furthermore, the CEO has also publicly mentioned that him and the Board Chair go a long way in the Transformation space.
Don't bother doing an OIA as you will only receive false information.
