Three new board members joined the Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance (FGIA) Board of Directors during the 2024 Fall Conference in Minneapolis, MN.

FGIA welcomes Scott Corley (ODL), Chris Giovannielli (Kawneer Company) and Stacha Reed (Andersen Corporation) to the Board.

“We are thrilled the welcome Scott, Chris and Stacha to the Board,” said Janice Yglesias, FGIA Executive Director. “They have years of experience among them, and our Association will benefit from their expertise.”

He is currently a member of several GPC committees as well as an alternate on the FGIA Code Action Steering Committee. He also serves on the board of directors of the Insulating Glass Certification Council (IGCC).

In addition to the Board, he serves as the APC Representative for the AAMA Certification Policy Committee and has been actively engaged in the Association for several years.

Stacha ReedReed has been an engineer for 24 years and has worked in multiple technical and operations leadership roles. She joined the Association in 2014 and has since been active across all material councils.

Changes to FGIA Bylaws

The FGIA bylaws related to the Board composition requirements were recently changed to allow for more flexibility in populating the Board with active and qualified candidates. While the original language was prescriptive, the revised language continues to support having broad experience on the Board with representation from across FGIA’s full scope of product and market segments. It also continues to support a strong fenestration producer representation.

FGIA added an At Large Director position to create more flexibility in allowing Board participation by member types, such as test labs and service providers, while keeping the APC, GPC and RPC Director positions more focused on representation by those producing finished products or components specific to those Councils.

The FGIA Board of Directors is made up of Officers and Directors (APC, GPC, RPC), as well as Ex Officio Board Members.
