The local BMA Board of Directors is the backbone of our organization. These professionals volunteer their time, talent and wisdom to deliver a smorgasboard of services and opportunities to help you in your career and profession.
To all our friends, associates and fellow members, we ask that you show your support by doing business with our volunteers.
BMA Partner & Volunteers of the Month – May 2007--George Szymkiewicz
In today’s Internet Age, an organization’s website is its backbone. Without a vibrant website, an organization simply cannot effectively communicate its brand at a strategic level or its news at a tactical level.
NorCal BMA is fortunate to have George Szymkiewicz as our outstanding web guru. George has made the NorCal BMA website a fountain of timely information. In doing so, his diligence, time, and dedication to keeping the site up to date, refreshing in its visual appeal and factual accuracy have helped us reach business-to-business marketers around the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond.
We were pleased to honor George as our outstanding volunteer in May. And in June, the National BMA organization joined us in our accolades by naming the NorCal website as most outstanding in the country. Their award recognizes George for the work he has done in promoting BMA’s brand, image and communications to B2B marketers.
Congratulations and thank you, George!
BMA Partner & Volunteers of the Month – April 2007--Janice Wojdula and Mike Tubbs
This month’s star volunteers have played a major role in ensuring that BMA can continue to serve you with valuable resources and the connections you need to be the best at your job.
In April, the BMA Board voted to recognize Janice Wojdula (Wojdula Design) and Mike Tubbs (Ellipsis Graphics) for their work in helping me as chairman fill roles for the 2007 – 2008 Board of Directors.
Identifying and inviting new Board members is a task that begins in February and culminates with a slate of nominees presented to members at the April luncheon. If you think that making cold calls and screening volunteers for the Board is an easy task, consider that this job is tantamount to hiring new recruits for critical positions in your company.
Janice and Mike have more than demonstrated their ability to evaluate roles, define responsibilities and select candidates who would bring their energy, enthusiasm and expertise to the Board. Our thanks to Janice and Mike for their efforts on BMA’s behalf.
