In anticipation of the retirement of NAMM President and CEO Joe Lamond and to offer the global industry association continued stability, the NAMM Executive Committee and executive search firm Russell Reynolds Associates have released the position specifications for the association’s next Chief Executive Officer.

The search firm, which was announced earlier this year, has detailed the position and related responsibilities, which include carrying out the vision, mission, and objectives of the global association; directing professional and support staff in the creation, planning, and coordination of programs to meet objectives; serving as an advocate for core industry issues; and directing those engaged in building the industry’s annual gathering, The NAMM Show, among many other responsibilities.

The Search Committee includes the NAMM Executive Committee as well as two industry leaders, past NAMM Chair Larry Morton, Hal Leonard and Nick Averwater, AMRO Music.
