Jason C. Stearns, President - ARMA International Last week I had the honor of announcing the 2021-2022 ARMA Board of Directors election results. We are excited for the new additions to the board and know their expertise as well as their experience will assist ARMA in providing more value to our members. - Wendy McLain, CRM, President-Elect
- Cindy Chmura, Director
Due to a vacancy for a director position with Wendy McLain's election as president-elect, Megan Butcher, CRM, CIPP/US, ITIL was appointed to fill the remaining director term. The Board of Directors helps shape the future of the association. The industry has faced many challenges over the years but, the future is filled with many opportunities. The continued support of our members, combined with the leadership of the ARMA board, shapes our future and ongoing success. I also want to thank the Election Management Task Force for its work to make ARMA a strong organization. The chair of this task force is Bill Bradford, chair of the Board of Directors, and members included Michelle Kirk, Michael Haley, and Chris Bednar. Again, please join me in congratulating Wendy, Cindy and Megan on their new roles! Thank you for your participation and continued commitment to ARMA. Wishing you health, peace, and strength. Jason C. Stearns, President Jason.Stearns@armaintl.org "The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new.”- Socrates (from Way of the Peaceful Warrior, 1984) | | |
