DMA accepting nominations for board of directors
By Mary Elizabeth Hurn

The Direct Marketing Association is currently accepting nominations for a limited number of vacancies on its 2009 board of directors.

Nominees must be senior-level executives in the field of direct marketing, have authority to speak for their company, as well as meet a number of other criteria. The greatest need for DMA board representation is in the b-to-b marketing nonprofit, and consumer products and services segments. The deadline for nominations is February 22.

The DMA Nominating Committee, which is headed by Markus Wilhelm, the most recent chamber of the board at the DMA, will be evaluating the nominations and presenting the status of those nods to the full board in May.

DMA members will cast their votes in October at the DMA08 Annual Conference and Exhibition in Las Vegas.
