The NSCA announced Michael Massik as the new executive director to lead headquarters staff. A seasoned professional with a history of leading nonprofit, membership-based associations, Michael Massik joins the NSCA as executive director effective in January 2016.
“Michael brings a wealth of experience from his work with nonprofits, but also has experience working with the sport of weightlifting which is closely aligned with the strength and conditioning profession,” explained Dr. Greg Haff, NSCA Board president. “His documented ability to increase membership in his previous roles coupled with his ability to enhance the overall member experience makes Michael a very unique individual. His skill sets align well with the NSCA’s future goals and having him join the NSCA family allows us to continue to focus on improving the member experience whilst maintain our organization’s core values.”
As executive director, Massik will be responsible for all of the day-to-day activities of the staff at headquarters and will report to the NSCA Board of Directors. Charged with serving the needs of nearly 30,000 members, he will focus on increasing the association’s value to its members and leveraging his extensive background to enhance the membership experience.
“I am excited to join the NSCA team and use my science training and sport leadership experience to best serve our members and help shepherd the organization in achieving its mission of being the worldwide authority on strength and conditioning,” said Massik.
