PPAI board officers are selected by the PPAI Board Officer Nominating Committee and voted on by the PPAI board.
The 2021 Board of Directors Officers are as follows:
Chair of the Board: Todd Pottebaum, MAS+, president of Quality Resource Group Inc., Plymouth, Minn.

Current Chair Ira Neaman, MAS, will assume the role of immediate past board chair.
“Todd, Dawn and Kevin are extremely capable leaders and business executives who have added much to the PPAI board,” Neaman said. “I look forward to their ongoing contributions.”
“Thomas Edison once said that ‘opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work,’” Pottebaum said. “PPAI’s board of directors, staff and strategic partners are heavily engaged in an iterative strategic planning process that’s designed to uncover new opportunities for you, the industry, and the association. I’m looking forward to building on the work of past boards while working alongside Dawn and Kevin, and the current board to deliver meaningful opportunities in 2021.”
PPAI Immediate Past Board Chair, Brittany David, MAS, who led the nominating committee, remarked, “I look forward to both Dawn and Kevin’s leadership and know they will both do amazing things for the Association.”
