US AIRWAYS EXPANDS ROLES OF TWO EXECUTIVES
ARLINGTON, Va., April 20, 2005 -- US Airways has expanded the roles of two executives, naming Jerrold A. Glass as executive vice president – chief human resources officer, and Bill Trousdale as vice president - financial planning and analysis.
Glass, who joined the company in April 2002 as senior vice president of employee relations, oversees US Airways’ relationships with its unions as well as human resources policy and compliance, recruiting, corporate learning and development, compensation and benefits.
In his new role, Glass will also oversee the company's "Partners for Change," program, which is designed to build better relationships with labor to address business issues and improve operational efficiency.
"Jerry has been able to work constructively with all of our unions in dealing with some extremely difficult issues," said Bruce R. Lakefield, US Airways president and chief executive officer. "He has a tremendous understanding of the human resources issues facing our industry, and has done a great job not only in developing new programs, but also in balancing our employees’ and company’s needs."
Trousdale, currently a managing director in the finance department, will be responsible for all aspects of the airline’s financial and capital planning and analysis, in additional to labor, fleet, and market profitability analysis functions.
"Bill’s broad range of talents and financial acumen have played an important role in our ability to develop a viable business plan to return our company to profitability," said Lakefield. "He is a highly motivated and dynamic individual and we welcome his continued expertise and contributions."
Glass holds a bachelor of arts degree from Boston University and a master’s degree in public administration from The George Washington University.
Trousdale joined US Airways in 1999 from Weil-McLain. He holds a master’s in business administration in management & strategy and marketing from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University and a bachelor’s of science degree in mechanical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Trousdale also served five years in the United States Navy as a nuclear submarine officer.
