I feel confident he will be a natural fit with our organization.โ
Bentley is already familiar with the organization. He sits on the TCAโs board of directors, is a member of its recruitment and retention human resources committee and has served as co-chair of the TCAโs image and communications policy committee.
โIโm honored to have been selected. Itโs a life-changing deal for me,โ said Bentley. โMy career has been about creativity and collaboration, and Iโm a big networker, so youโll see me out there โbeating the streetsโ. Iโm planning to offer the TCA members a value-driven agenda.โ
