Q. This is the time when some of the trade associations elect/appoint new heads. Do the fresh appointments excite you with the prospects of changes and a whiff of fresh air?

A. Trade Associations have periodic rotation (generally two years) of leadership. So, there is nothing unusual about this. Secondly, the leadership team ensures a practice of continuity with change. Consequently, any leadership change would not result in a dramatically revised approach. The overall approach, in most cases, has been pro-industry and progressive. And they operate within the overall vision of the association. As members of such an association for quite some time, and I have remained energetic always with the approach of the new leadership.
