The RTA is managed by a Board of Trustees under the leadership of Her Majesty Queen Mother Sangay Choden Wangchuck as the Chairperson. The other Board Members include Dr. Frederik Paulsen, Chairman, Ferring Pharmaceuticals; Dasho Penden Wangchuk, Former Cabinet Secretary, Royal Government of Bhutan; and Mrs. Krista Amason, President, Friends of the Royal Textile Academy of Bhutan, Washington DC.
