Jon Gerson, president of Executive Solutions, was elected to serve a two-year term on the Equipment Leasing and Finance Association’s Service Providers Business Council Steering Committee and was also elected to the association’s Emerging Talent Advisory Council.

The Service Providers Business Council Steering Committee is one of five primary constituent bodies at ELFA, representing companies in accounting, collections, law, consulting, software, equipment management, university, government, executive recruiting, insurance, nonprofits/associations and publishing.

The committees are an integral part of ELFA’s operations, providing critical input on the direction of the association and serving as a bridge between the membership and the board of directors and staff. The committee members are elected by the business council membership for a term of two years on a staggered basis.

“I’m honored to have the opportunity to serve on the Service Providers Business Council again, after being term limited,” Gerson said. “Providers represent a significant proportion of ELFA membership with diverse needs, and so it is a privilege to work on the council.”

The ETAC was formed with the primary goal of developing and involving the next generation of emerging company leaders in the industry and activities of the ELFA.

“The ETAC’s mission is something very near and dear to my heart. I joke that unless you’re born into leasing, as I was, you only find it by accident,” Gerson said. “I’m so glad that the ELFA takes seriously the value of long term investment in current and prospective employees, at both a company and industry-wide level.”
