The Water Environment Federation (WEF) has promoted Pamela Henry to the
position of Deputy Executive Director. Having been with WEF for more than 25
years, Henry is a seasoned leader who will oversee a number of key
organizational programs including WEFTEC operations and exhibitions,
advertising and sponsorships, marketing, communications and creative services,
human resources, and facilities management.
“Pam is a proven leader who makes shouldering a heavy load appear deceptively
easy,” said WEF Executive Director Eileen O’Neill. “She deftly combines running
a tight ship and managing multiple responsibilities with a genuine interest in
people and a talent for growing teams. We are absolutely delighted that she has
agreed to serve WEF in this new role.”
Beginning her career with WEF in the exhibitions group in 1986, Henry has
held a variety of positions within the Federation, including Membership
Director, Director of Conferences & Exhibitions, and Sr. Director of
Conference Operations, Exhibitions, and Sales Development. Among her most
notable achievements have been her contributions to the phenomenal growth and
success of WEFTEC, WEF’s annual technical exhibition and conference.
Under her leadership, WEFTEC has regularly set new attendance and exhibition
records, while solidifying its reputation as the must attend event for water
quality professionals around the world. Most recently, WEFTEC was recognized by
Trade Show Executive as one of the fastest growing trade shows in the
United States.
“Although much of Pam’s work over the years has been behind the scenes, the
results of her commitment to WEF staff, WEF members and to WEFTEC are
undeniable,” continued O’Neill. “She’s an enormous asset to the organization as
demonstrated by success in many areas.“
Scheduled for Sept. 27-Oct. 1 at the New Orleans Morial Convention Center in
New Orleans (La.), WEFTEC 2014 will feature 145 technical sessions, 35
workshops, 11 mobile sessions, 8 facility tours, numerous events and nearly
1,000 exhibiting companies displaying the latest in water quality research
technology and services.
