Never Let Them See You Sweat.. and other thoughts..

Before we head off into the holiday weekend, I wanted to pass along some very encouraging news about our chapter.

This past week, we held two meetings related to leadership and the strategic planning of the future of our chapter.  As a result of these two meetings, we have a full executive committee on our board, as well as many of the committee positions filled.  But-- the best part?  Many of these chapter members have stepped up to take on the challenge without ever previously holding a leadership position within IAAP.  KUDOS to them. They are taking on new opportunities and gaining new experience. I cannot thank them enough.  Soon- I'll send the President's report with all the nitty gritty details and I will name names!

The second exciting piece of info to share is that we have a really great program year scheduled for 2010-11, including two unique events that I hope will encourage additional members to join AND entice our current members to more fully participate in all that IAAP has to offer.

It's a lot.  Many volunteers and many possibilities that things may not go exactly as planned, right?  Well- we do what superb admins do-- We do NOT sweat.  Actually, we sweat-- but we never let them see us sweat, right?  And we still get the job done!

So stay tuned for some really good stuff coming your way.  Take on those challenges (IAAP or otherwise).  You know you can do it!
