“Emerging Workforce Trends

in the US Mining Industry”

Dave Kanagy, Executive Director, 

Society for Mining, Metallurgy

& Exploration

Mr. Kanagy will review the recently released results from the SME “Emerging Workforce Trends in the US Mining Industry” report. He will review how US mine labor has changed over the past 30 years and what the projected need for the next 18 years will include. He will highlight the factors that are currently driving the mining business in the US as well as issues that are anticipated to drive the business in the near future

Dave joined SME in March 2004 and has tripled the revenues of the organization making a real difference in turning around the SME financial situation.  He also improved staff coordination and cooperation, and is positioning SME to provide greater value for its members with the development of new products such as OneMine.  He was instrumental in developing a merger of the Woman's Auxiliary to the American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical, and Petroleum Engineers, the Underground Construction and Tunneling Association, the Minerals Information Institute and the International Marine Minerals Society into SME.

He has a B.S. degree in industrial education from the University of Maryland and a MS degree in technology education from Eastern Illinois University.  He is also a certified association executive by the American Society of Association Executives.  He has also completed a six-year association management-development program from the University of Delaware’s Institute of Organizational Management.

Dave has worked over 28 years with nonprofit organizations.  His level of responsibility has progressively increased, culminating in senior management and chief staff officer positions.  With his solid association background, Dave is knowledgeable in all aspects of the day-to-day business operations at SME headquarters.  He is familiar with membership issues, technical conferences, expositions, industry statistics and information technology.
