INSTALL, the North American leader in floorcovering installation training and certification, announces the appointment of David Gross as INSTALL Executive Director. Gross began his new position on December 1, 2022, upon the retirement of the organization’s previous executive director, John T. McGrath, Jr. who held the leadership role for 16 years.
Gross will continue to highlight INSTALL’s collaborative spirit and sees the executive director as a facilitator role within the organization. He intends to focus on the needs of each sector of the industry—installers, contractors, manufacturers, and specifiers—and work to determine how INSTALL can assist each group in meeting its goals, from providing human resource guidance to supporting recruiting efforts.
