Language Services Associates Announces New Leadership Appointments
Frank Johnson to Serve As President and Dennis Angeline to Serve As Managing Director of Administrative Services and Corporate Development

Horsham, PA (March 7, 2013) Language Services Associates (LSA), a global language services provider offering a full suite of translation and interpretation solutions, is pleased to announce the appointment of Frank Johnson to President and Dennis Angeline to Managing Director of Administrative Services and Corporate Development, effective immediately.  LSA’s Founder and former President, Laura K.T. Schriver, will serve as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Johnson comes to LSA with more than 35 years of financial and business operations experience in the retail industry and other business sectors.  During the course of his career, he has held several C-level positions, including Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer.  He specializes in management and financial consulting, business development, process improvement and customer relationship management.

Mr. Angeline, a seasoned business and financial professional with more than 25 years of experience in the banking and financial services industry, has demonstrated success in growing businesses and increasing profitability.  His key areas of expertise include strategic planning, new product development, marketing management and profitability improvement.

Mr. Johnson and Mr. Angeline joined LSA earlier this year as members of the Executive Management Team.  In their new leadership roles, they will be responsible for growing the business with a strong focus on revenue-generating, value-added initiatives and programs across all areas of the organization.  These gentlemen will lead the way in the development and implementation of new strategies, products and processes designed to meet LSA’s business expansion and growth plan.

“I am delighted to announce these new leadership appointments,” said Schriver.  “Mr. Johnson and Mr. Angeline have the professional experience, knowledge and technical and operational expertise to take LSA to the next level of growth and development, while still focusing on our core values of exceptional customer service, linguistic quality and cutting-edge technology solutions.  I look forward to what the future holds for our employees, clients, business partners and the global language services industry as a whole.”

In her new role as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Ms. Schriver will focus on the big picture items that are vital to the company’s overall success, such as the development and maintenance of strategic alliance partnerships with companies both in and outside of the professional language services industry.  While no longer involved in the day-to-day activities of LSA, Ms. Schriver will still be actively involved in guiding the company’s strategic direction and future business operations.
