The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association is loosing four of its vice presidents, the organization announced on March 18, 2008. Jay Truitt will leave his post as Vice President of Government Affairs in Washington, D.C. and three Vice-President positions are being eliminated in the organization’s Denver office. Those positions were filled by Mark Thomas who headed Global Consumer Marketing; Don Rickets who was in charge of governance and federation relations; and Tim Downey who oversaw strategic projects. CEO Terry Stokes will run the Washington office in the interim.

NCBA spokesman Joe Schuele says the upper management changes should lead to even greater operational efficiency. Membership is up nine percent over the past year and up over 20 percent over the last three years
