The Board of Directors of the In-Mold Decorating Association (IMDA) announced a leadership change with the retirement of Executive Director Ron Schultz, effective Dec. 1, 2020. Peterson Publications Inc. will serve as the new managing partner for the association, with Jeff Peterson assuming the role of Executive Director and Dianna Brodine serving as Managing Director.

“We offer our sincere gratitude to Ron and his wife, Myra, for their leadership since the formation of the IMDA,” said Peterson.

The team at Peterson Publications has extensive experience in association management and in the plastics decorating industry. “We’re excited to jump into 2021 by continuing the IMDA’s education programs (including the ABCs of IML and the IMDA Symposium), supporting the membership through new benefit programs, and expanding upon the awareness of in-mold decorating and labeling throughout the global packaging and durable goods markets,” Peterson commented.
