ASA President’s Letter

RSS

There are plenty of opportunities to get together to talk about new opportunities, obstacles, or to just learn about how other people deal with daily issues. You have buying group meetings, the regional meetings, and one that is near and dear to ASA’s heart — NETWORK.

There is a necessity for ASA Advocacy. We need a voice in Washington. All of us need the interests of the PHCP-PVF Industry to be top of mind, heard, and understood.

Did you know ASA's Women in Industry event grew from 100 attendees to over 400?  Join 400+ industry professionals at ASA's Emerging Leaders or Women in Industry events this month and May!

In January, 90 ASA volunteers met for the 2024 LEAD planning. We discussed the industry's future and how ASA's innovation, sustainability, and leadership will define our success. The dynamic marketplace presents challenges. Our relevance is key to our success.

In 2015, ASA commissioned a research project to better understand the industry’s workforce and trends. Late last year, we conducted the study again and the final results are currently being tabulated. I’m pleased that ASA and its members have continued to deem PROJECT TALENT as a key strategic initiative.

What do we need to do to continue to make our companies successful for the next generation of leaders of the PHCP-PVF industry?

I have truly loved serving as your ASA president, and I am honored that you chose me in this moment.

The year has flown by and it’s hard to believe I’m winding down my time as your American Supply Association president.

My journey as your American Supply Association president is coming to a close in a few short months and I am reminded of the miles traveled, the many people I've met, and the invaluable experiences that have enriched not only my year but my life.

The American Supply Association’s charge is to be our indispensable partner as we navigate the course of change. If you’re not an ASA member, now is the time.
