TIA BOARD NOMINATIONS SOUGHT
In 2014, there is one open At-Large Seat on the TIA Board of Directors. In addition, two At-Large members of the Board and two Conference Chair members of the Board (International Conference and Airfreight Conference) are eligible for re-election to a second term.
The TIA Board of Directors is comprised of 16 members elected At-Large and four members elected to represent specific segments of the membership (Highway, Intermodal, International, and Air), and four ex-officio members (Immediate Past Chair, TIA Foundation Chair, TIA Services Chair, and TIA Political Action Committee Chair). The TIA Board meets three times per year (at the TIA Convention, during the summer usually in Washington, DC, and at the Fall Meeting).
The Nominating Committee is charged with reviewing expressions of interest for running for the Board, and in so doing, maintaining the balance between the size of companies, geographic representation, and business mix. The TIA Board of Directors sets the policy and governing objectives for the brokerage-based third party logistics industry. The members of the TIA Board are the owners or decision makers within their companies with the ability to make binding decisions.
If you are interested in running for the TIA Board, please complete the attached application on the following pages. Applications are due to the TIA office (Voltmann@tianet.org) by close of business December 20, 2013. For more information, please contact TIA president and CEO Bob Voltmann by phone (703-299-5707) or email.
