AAMA Appoints Janice Yglesias as Executive Vice President, Promotes Other Personnel

Yglesias previously served as association services director before taking on this new position.

"During her 18 years with AAMA, Janice strived to learn and understand all AAMA operations, programs and services. That knowledge has been transferred into countless improvements in AAMA procedures and productivity, making this a very well-deserved promotion," said AAMA President and CEO Rich Walker.

Yglesias's new role will involve creating, communicating and implementing the organization's vision, mission, values, beliefs and strategic goals, as directed by the president and CEO, and the board of directors, as well as assisting in planning, organizing and directing staff, programs and activities of the association.

She also will oversee, guide, direct and evaluate the work of other executive leaders including directors and managers of the association and will determine ways to reduce costs, increase revenues and improve overall company performance for association products and services. In addition, Yglesias will establish effective internal and external relationships, and work on other specific assignments.

Walker went on to say that Yglesias is "a tireless worker who always finds time to consult with members and staff, extending her outstanding ethical standards, personal integrity, strong leadership and teamworking skills."

Yglesias celebrated 19 years at AAMA on Feb. 16, 2018.
