Staff -- Modern Materials Handling, 9/1/2009

The Warehousing Education and Research Council (WERC, www.werc.org) has named interim executive director Michael J. Mikitka its new chief executive officer. Mikitka has been the principal architect of WERC's annual conference for the past eight years and stepped up to the plate as the organization's interim leader, providing leadership during a time of transition. "In the 'brief' nine years I've been with WERC, I've seen the role of warehousing and distribution in the supply chain evolve. These are exciting and challenging times for the industry, and I look forward to ensuring that WERC's products and services remain relevant and practical," said Mikitka.
