    INDA’s Board of Directors provides strategic stewardship for the association. The board provides oversight of INDA’s finances and direction for its operating plans as well as counsel to the president to organize and perform activities that contribute to the success of the nonwovens industry and its members.

    Board responsibilities include formulating, reviewing, and approving strategic plans, policies, programs, dues and operating procedures affecting the association’s 378 members. The 21-member board comprises elected board officers and the immediate past board chair. One-third of the entire board is elected each year for a three-year term by a majority vote of INDA’s general membership.

    “This year’s group of new board members bring a strong set of strategic skills, experience, and insights to INDA. We value their insights in helping us create and adjust business services environment conducive to the long-term success of our industry. We look forward to developing, under their guidance, even more value and means to meet the changing needs of our members and the industry,” says Dave Rousse, INDA president.

    When INDA’s Board of Directors is not in session, the Executive Committee is authorized to act in its place and includes the following officers and appointees:
    • Christopher Astley, chair (senior VP and chief commercial officer, Glatfelter)
    • Bryan Haynes, Ph.D., vice chair of Planning (senior technical director for Global Nonwovens, Kimberly-Clark Corporation)
    • Wendy Warner, Ph.D., vice chair of Finance (president, Personal Care, Jacob Holm Industries)
    • Todd L. Bassett, past chair (managing director, Fi-Tech Inc.)
    • Paul Latten, appointee (director of Research & Development & New Business, Southeast Nonwovens, Inc.)
    • Homer Swei, appointee, (associate director, Product Stewardship, Johnson & Johnson Consumer, Inc.)
    • Tom Zaiser, appointee (CEO, FiberVisions)

    INDA’s Board of Directors meets semi-annually and reviews INDA performance quarterly. The Executive Committee may meet more frequently as issues arise between board meetings. “INDA’s Board structure provides leadership continuity, directional clarity, and sound decision making to advance the success of our industry,” says Rousse.
