To better serve its members and industry partners, AMTSociety has implemented a new management structure. This new structure will have two equally important groups: an Executive Board and a group of Industry Advisors.
Ronald Donner, AMTSociety Executive Director and Business Manager, says, “From time to time it’s important for progressive organizations to look inward and ask itself if their structure is still aligned with the needs of the industry and members it serves. At the same time organizations must also look outside its group and ask others within the industry the same important questions. This new structure will provide a better means to seek input from members and industry aimed toward enhancing the overall mission of AMTSociety.”
Executive Board
The new Executive Board is comprised of five positions and will be the new leadership group for AMTSociety. All five individuals of the new Executive Board were part of the previous AMTSociety Board of Directors. The primary role of the Executive Board is to provide overall direction and collective decision making on current and future activities, member offerings, and industry involvement. Members of the Executive Board will constantly pursue additional initiatives aimed to enhance the overall mission of AMTSociety. Members of the new Executive Board are Mark Collins, Gloria Cosby, Ronald Donner, Gary Goodpaster, and Jim Sparks.
Industry Advisors
In addition to the Executive Board, AMTSociety will have a group of Industry Advisors. The primary role of the Industry Advisor is to provide input to the Executive Board on current aviation issues and to suggest new initiatives that enhance the overall mission of AMTSociety. The number of Industry Advisors may be adjusted depending on the input and expertise needed to successfully manage activities and implement initiatives at any given time. Additional Industry Advisors can be brought into the group to provide input for short- or long-term periods and to participate in any number of initiatives. The Industry Advisor group is currently being established with several advisors confirmed.
Every attempt will be made to maintain a blend of talent and experience from all segments of aviation in both the Executive Board members and Industry Advisors. New Industry Advisors having relevant aviation, aircraft maintenance, or business expertise, can be suggested by anyone, or an individual can request to be part of this group. Additional advisors will be considered on an ongoing basis as AMTSociety initiatives require new and additional industry input.
Additional details on the new Executive Board members and Industry Advisors will be provided in future updates and on the AMTSociety website.
