Earning Your Trust Every Day in the Job

NTCA - the Rural Broadband Association has appointed a new Chief Executive Officer, Mike Romano. Romano previously served as the Executive Vice President of NTCA. "I joined NTCA in the middle of the National Broadband Plan, and we’ve worked since then through multiple Universal Service Fund (USF) reforms and even court challenges," he said. "Today, we aren't just looking at regulatory challenges either. The marketplace is changing too. Competition and technology are evolving, offering promise while also creating new pressure points. But your resilience, your creativity, your commitment, and our partnership have seen us through challenges before, and I'm confident they will again...This leads to the vision I presented to the NTCA Board during the search process, and which I will carry forward in leading NTCA: embracing change, pushing for innovation, and helping members help themselves."
