USApple searching for new leader

The U.S. Apple Association (USApple) is searching for a new president and CEO. The previous president, Nancy Foster, recently resigned.

Diane Kurrle, USApple’s vice president of public affairs, will temporarily serve as interim president and CEO until the association’s search committee completes its work.

“I am assuming this position at a time when the association is in excellent shape,” Kurrle said. “We have a strong and committed staff and will continue to work together on behalf of the industry.”

USApple’s mission is to advocate for American apple growers and their industry partners on national issues, in order to promote the profitable production and marketing of apples and apple products. For more information about USApple, click here.

The search is being conducted by Executive Recruitment Concierge Carol Barber. For more information about the position, email [email protected].
