January 25, 2022
The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), Council of Manufacturing Associations (CMA), selected USTMA President and CEO Anne Forristall Luke as the distinguished recipient of its prestigious CMA 2022 Leadership Award. The announcement was made by Jay Timmons, president and CEO of NAM and chairman of the board of the Manufacturing Institute during the CMA winter meeting on Jan. 13, 2022.
“When Anne Forristall Luke stepped up to serve as CMA Chair in 2020, she hardly could have predicted she would be leading our community through very dark and difficult days of a global pandemic. But guided by her unfailing moral compass, she led us through those challenging times while also helping her own members navigate the incredible impact on her industry,” said Timmons. “Anne also launched and led the CMA’s diversity and inclusion initiative, helping us use our individual and collective platforms to advance DE&I with a focus on closing the opportunity gap. And even after her time as chair had come to a conclusion, she still continues to lead our women’s CEO network.”
The Council of Manufacturing Associations (CMA) is made up of over 260 manufacturing trade associations that work together on behalf of manufacturing in the United States. The NAM works with its association partners to promote legislative, regulatory and economic policies that enhance manufacturing, support the professional development of association leaders and provide opportunities to connect with strategic allies. Every year, the CMA recognizes the association leader who has done the most to advance and expand this influential network.
