Tyma retires after 34 years of service with NTN, most recently serving as national account manager for heavy\u2011duty truck markets. \u201cThroughout his distinguished career, Tyma built a reputation for expanding NTN\u2019s heavy\u2011duty presence through strategic customer partnerships and market development,\u201d the company said. His experience spans across NTN\u2019s industrial, heavy\u2011duty truck and automotive aftermarket sectors, and he played a pivotal role in securing major national accounts and opening new markets for NTN and its Bower Heavy\u2011Duty Bearings product line.<\/p>\n

NTN welcomes Dick, who joins the organization as national sales manager for NTN\u2019s heavy\u2011duty aftermarket, filling the role vacated by Tyma. He brings deep leadership experience across the automotive aftermarket, electric vehicle and component manufacturing markets, and was appointed to his new role in November, 2025. He holds an MBA from DePaul University\u2019s Kellstadt Graduate School of Business and a Master of Science in Economics from Oklahoma State University.<\/p>\n

\u201cJohn\u2019s legacy is one of deep customer commitment, industry and product expertise, and unwavering support for our heavy\u2011duty partners. We are grateful for his decades of service and the strong foundation he leaves behind. At the same time, we are excited to welcome Alan to the team. His strategic mindset, aftermarket experience and customer\u2011focused approach align perfectly with our vision for long\u2011term growth across the heavy\u2011duty and automotive aftermarket channels,\u201d said Charles Harris, NTN<\/a> vice president, automotive aftermarket.<\/p>\n
