Board of Directors Election

• Nomination Period for ASA Board of Directors closed July 30, 2020.
• Election Period for ASA Board of Directors will run from August 5, 2020 through August 26, 2020.

Any person who works for a regular ASA member, that is in good standing, is eligible as a Director for the ASA Board of Directors. There is a change to the ASA Bylaws regarding the term length of the Director position. ASA is in the process of transitioning the Directors to 3 year terms. During this transition time, the 6 positions being elected in 2019 will be randomly assigned either a 2 or 3 year term. The assignment will be done after the election.

There are quarterly meetings held at various locations, mostly domestic US, but meetings have been held in Canada and Europe. The goal is to hold the meetings in an aerospace hub, near Directors’ facilities, and/or commonly attended industry meetings. There are conference calls throughout the year as needed. All costs associated with attending the quarterly meetings are borne by the Director.

Election Ballots were emailed on August 5, 2020, and will be accepted through 4:00 pm Eastern on August 26, 2020.

Fourth quarter Board of Directors meeting is scheduled to be held in Barcelona, Spain on Monday, October 27, 2020, which is immediately before the MRO Europe Convention. It is preferred to have all Directors at a meeting, but due to elections and the quick timing of scheduled meetings, ASA will issue a waiver for attendance at the October meeting for any newly elected Director.

The election will be for three Board positions currently held by Lee Kapel, Brent Webb and Mitch Weinberg.

Any questions? Of course please email Michele Dickstein with any questions and/or consider contacting any current Director, their information is on the ASA Website.
