"Carolyn has built a proven track record of leading positive change, advancing key initiatives in the face of significant challenges and bringing people together, from all sides, to make headway on the work that must be done for manufacturers and the people of our nation," said NAM president and CEO Jay Timmons. "Carolyn is a respected and trusted leader of the NAM, and we look forward to seeing her take the Institute to the next level."
