(The following was announced 18 November 2003)
Following the recent resignation of Executive Director Tonia Baney, the Trustees have asked Mindy Williams, the Office Manager of the Foundation office in Chicago, to assume most of the former Executive Director's duties under the new title of International Office Director. Mindy has agreed to accept this additional responsibility, effective immediately.
Mindy joined Urantia Foundation staff as Office Manager in 1999. She has 25-year experience in business administration, including expertise in the areas of marketing, human resources, legal matters, and technology. Before joining Urantia Foundation staff, Mindy served as the Technology Applications Manager for a firm with offices in Florida, United States, where she was responsible for computer systems, website, and technology training.
For the past four years, Mindy has been an integral part of Urantia Foundation's management team and has been actively involved in many different program areas. We are confident that Mindy and the experienced staff of Urantia Foundation will continue to faithfully carry out their myriad duties. We appreciate the service this excellent team renders each day to further the dissemination of The Urantia Book around the world and we ask that you please join us as we offer our encouragement and support to our International Office Director and the other members of Urantia Foundation staff in Chicago, Sydney, Helsinki, St. Petersburg, Quebec, Vancouver, and London.
