Looking ahead, Smith says he is in favor of expanding the number of divisions, organizational affiliates and other specialty-focused groups within ACA. “My mindset is to be as inclusive as possible, to help all of those entities play a greater part in ACA,” he says. “The challenge that I face, and that I think ACA leadership faces, is how you do that. I want to make sure everybody has a place at the table and still run the organization efficiently. That’s a big challenge, but what I’d like people to know is that I want to figure this out. I want everyone to have a place at the table. That’s the only way we’ll continue to grow.”
