A New Chapter for PHCC: Leadership Transition Ahead
The Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors—National Association (PHCC) finds itself at a pivotal moment, as CEO Cindy Sheridan announces her retirement at the end of 2026. After leading the organization with strength and vision, particularly as its first female CEO, Sheridan leaves behind a legacy of collaboration and growth within the plumbing and HVACR industries.
Who Will Lead Next? A Look at Dan Quinonez
Taking the reins is Dan Quinonez, the current executive director of the PHCC Educational Foundation. This transition doesn't simply change the name on the office door; it heralds a new direction for the organization, aiming to harness Quinonez's over two decades of experience in association management. His proven ability to foster partnerships and engage with stakeholders could pave the way for exciting initiatives that further enhance member value and industry impact.

Throughout her tenure, Sheridan prioritized workforce development and innovative resources to help contractors thrive. Her leadership not only elevated PHCC’s profile but also streamlined processes to make the organization more efficient. This groundwork sets PHCC up for the challenges of tomorrow, ensuring that members are supported in an ever-evolving industry landscape.
A Vision for the Future
Quinonez's ascent comes at a time when the HVAC industry is experiencing rapid changes and challenges, including a labor shortage and advancements in technology. “By working closely with our members, we will continue to strengthen the association and create new opportunities for growth,” he asserts. His focus on unity and collaboration could prove invaluable as PHCC looks to expand its influence and support across all chapters.
The Importance of Leadership in Trade Organizations
Change at the top is more than just a routine shift; it is a reflection of an organization’s adaptability and foresight. This leadership transition resonates particularly within the context of the recent PHCC Leadership Summit, where stakeholders engaged in meaningful conversations about building a stronger, more interconnected organization. Having leaders who are committed to supporting their members is crucial in navigating current and future challenges in the trades.

As PHCC embarks on this transition, now is the perfect time for members to engage more deeply with the newly evolving structure. By participating in upcoming initiatives and contributing to discussions, members can ensure that their voices are heard and their needs are met during this critical period. Together, we can forge a path that amplifies the importance of readying our industry for the future.
