management team
Our goal is to help our members achieve their financial goals. We are always here to help. We are only a call, an email or a text away.
The AIADA exists to support and advocate for the independent auto dealer industry in Arizona. We work with various state and federal agencies to help ensure policies balance the needs of the consumer and of the industry. We work with legislators to ensure legislation has the intended consequences.
State lawmakers and regulatory agencies love to work with us because they want what we want: a compliance industry, a protected consumer, and a free-flow of commerce.
We help you get answers to questions pertaining to your business both of a compliance and non-compliance nature. Think of us as your best friend who is there when you need us.
Dave Warkentin
Executive Director
Dave has been in the association management business for 20 years. Prior to that he had a diverse career including IT management, IT consulting, process improvement, and team development. In his role as business association CEO he has worked with city, state and federal governments to succesfully amplify the voice of business.
After 10 years with the AIADA, Dave has become the friend of countless Arizona dealers being the voice of reason for dealers looking for help. He has developed relationships and partnerships throughout the industry and with State representatives and within regulatory agencies. He has a reputation for being a sane voice of reason and for taking a balanced approach so solving the unique challenges of our industry.
“I am blessed to have this real and rewarding opportunity to directly help individual businesses achieve success, whether it be a side job for extra money, putting their kids through school, or to build their retirement nest-egg.”
