My Clerk Story

From WMCA President Vikki Zuehlke WCMC/CMC

Dear WMCA Members,
I don’t know about you, but if Spring doesn’t come soon, I’m hopping on a plane and going somewhere where there’s sunshine, would anyone care to join me?
Your Board of Directors braved the weather in April (it snowed again) for their meeting. It was a long one due to the February meeting being cancelled because of snow. We were provided training on the dynamics of running a successful association by Ross Ament and continued the education of the Governance Model, as well as learning about the importance of empowering the staff of the association. WMCA has a Coordinator that provides much needed organization and processing of the day to day functions of the association. What the Board learned is that it should evaluate some of the duties that Board volunteers are doing and consider having them done by staff to alleviate duplication of efforts as well as taxing the volunteers who also have full time employment when staff could handle tasks more efficiently or effectively.  read more>
