• As Debbie Trueblood celebrates her one-year anniversary with IPRA, she has another reason to celebrate - the completion of the current three-year strategic plan six months early. This enormous feat was a collaborative effort between Debbie, staff, the IPRA Board of Directors, Membership Council, Foundation Board, section directors and committee chairs. Thank you to everyone who placed sweat equity into the effort! • A strategic marketing and communications plan was developed and is being implemented by staff. As a C&M Section member, I am thrilled to see this plan in action! • The Membership Council has been working diligently under the leadership of Nancy McCaul to ensure all sections are working in alignment with IPRA’s mission and goals. As a result, there are new section guidelines for standardizing the election process and section awards. Even the agendas for meetings are now standardized across the sections! The section directors and membership council representatives have worked harmoniously on developing descriptions, goals and objectives for each section to streamline them with IPRA’s goals. • The board and staff made a commitment to conduct a membership survey every three years to continue the effort of collecting relevant data to sustain our initiatives. Continually collecting input is critical to member satisfaction. • A communication plan was developed to eliminate duplicative education with other associations. Long gone are the days you’ll see redundancy between our sister agencies and IPRA. Thank you to all the members who contribute their time, talent, and energy to IPRA. Remember, this is your organization. The more you invest in it, the greater the value you will reap from it. Allison Niemela, IPRA Chairman of the Board |
