Dear AAPS Members,
It is with regret that the Executive Board wishes to advise the membership of David Harvey’s departure from AAPS.
David joined AAPS as a consultant and then became our full-time Executive Director in March 2005. We appreciate the expertise and professionalism he brought to AAPS, most notably throughout the salary mediation and arbitration process in 2005/06 and during bargaining in 2006. In his tenure with AAPS, David worked effectively to resolve various complaints and grievances as an advocate for many of our members. He has also worked closely with the Executive Board to transform AAPS from a wholly volunteer-run organization, into one whose volunteers work closely with a core of professional staff.
David is leaving the position of Executive Director of the Association of Administrative and Professional Staff effective August 6, 2008.
On behalf of the Executive Board and the Association I would like to thank David for his many contributions and wish him well in his future endeavours.
Bernice Urbaniak
President
