President’s Podium
This is my last message as President of the Kansas City Chapter, making it bittersweet. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the last two years as your President; I’m honored that you selected me to lead this great Chapter and that you put your trust in me to do it well. I can only hope that I met your expectations as I did not take any part of the position lightly. This has been an amazing opportunity which has shown me how wonderful Facilities Managers are, particularly when working as a team. I look forward to being a helping hand to your next President and working more closely with the IFMA Foundation. I am confident that you will be in great hands with your incoming President and Board and I’m sure you’ll be just as welcoming to them as you were to me. The Chapter will be going through some changes, all positive and in an effort to grow and move forward. I ask that if you’ve ever considered becoming a member of a committee, make that time now. You will never get more out of this Chapter than being on a committee and helping us be the best we can be. Thank you again for all of the support and kindness you’ve shown me; I look forward to continuing these relationships as your Past President.
P.S. – Don’t forget to come to the golf tournament!!
