CP STAFF
After the retirement earlier this year of Portland Cement Association’s John Gleason, president and chief executive officer since 1986, the board of directors named Brian McCarthy his successor at its annual meeting. PCA has an outstanding and well-earned reputation as a top trade association. I hope to continue that tradition, while moving forward to meet new challenges and opportunities, McCarthy told the board at the late-October gathering.
McCarthy previously served as chief operating officer for the Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA), a trade organization representing all sectors of the information technology industry. In that capacity, he led efforts to expand the group’s membership and its products and services. With membership encompassing 100-plus countries, CompTIA is the world’s largest provider of vendor-neutral IT certifications.
