Habermann is president of Scobrett Associates Inc., which is involved in venture capital and consulting activities. He replaces Thomas K. Welch, who is stepping down after four years on the board."We appreciate Tom's valuable service to the company and wish him success in his continued full-time commitment as president of the Salt Lake City Winter Olympic Bid Committee," said Don M.
