As part of AIA’s restructuring, TN now has representation as the national level through various leadership positions. We are excited to announce the following members selected to serve as a TN representative at the National level:
Scott Busby, AIA (Knoxville) | Small Firm Exchange
The Small Firm Exchange seeks to advance the mutual interests of architects practicing in small firms. The group advocates for them within the AIA and outside organizations, promotes leadership development and supports chapter roundtables and other small firm networks.
Josh Flowers, FAIA (Nashville) | Strategic Council
Formed in 2015, the Strategic Council advances the architecture profession by informing the Board and other Institute bodies about important professional issues, opportunities, and threats. Although it is not an AIA governing body, the Council’s work is vital to AIA’s ability to serve the profession.
The Council approaches its tasks with an emphasis on an outward and forward-focused vision. In this spirit, the Council focuses on long-term goals and outcomes of AIA’s work rather than the administrative or programmatic efforts that achieve those goals.
Katie Hunt, Assoc. AIA (Memphis) | National Associates Committee
The National Associates Committee is dedicated to representing and advocating for AIA’s associate members in AIA’s national, regional, state and local chapters. Associate members automatically become part of the AIA KnowledgeNet community.
Additional leadership positions, such as the Young Architects Forum (YAF) Representative will arise as the transition takes place over the next several years. We will keep members abreast and informed of these opportunities. Learn more about the Bylaws Amendment Transition.
