“NSCA members are facing a tremendous amount of competition and change,” says Shanahan in the NSCA announcement.
“I’m hoping to help NSCA remain extremely relevant to its members as we provide products, resources, and advisers that can help them navigate their way to success.”
McCarthy, president and CEO of Genesis Integration, will serve as the executive committee’s immediate past president after his two-year stint as president, replacing Michael Hester of Beacon Communications.
Hester will continue to serve NSCA by joining its Leadership Development Committee, helping weigh in on long-range planning decisions.

“The NSCA Board of Directors for 2018-2019 represent the diversity of our membership very well when it comes to managed services, company size and location, and the types of industry challenges they face,” says NSCA executive director Chuck Wilson.
“Josh Shanahan is becoming NSCA president at a crucial time. As a result, NSCA will be well-positioned to expand its offerings for integrators and manufacturers as their needs change along with the industry.”
