MOTION 2014-7, by Mr. Nielsen of Chapter 185 I move that under Article II, Purpose, Section 2, and Article III, Membership, that the Board of Directors convene an executive level committee to take immediate action to research and develop outreach efforts to address the recruitment of an under- represented group of FAA employees in FAAMA -- specifically the non-bargaining unit staff. Further, that this committee work with the group established to evaluate the potential name change of the FAA Managers Association so that the FAAMA branding of the future recognizes our organization as all-inclusive for those employees not considered bargaining unit eligible, as it is time to acknowledge leadership exists beyond the tradition of titles.
