Ciao for Now!
My term as STC President ended a little over two weeks ago, so this will be my final Prez Dispenser blog. And, now that I’ve recovered a bit from the flurry of travel, meetings, and speeches and presentations (planned and impromptu!) that was the conference, I’m finally stopping to reflect on my year as President. And what a year it was!!! From financial crisis to success with the BLS!
I think I enjoyed being STC President, although it was a tough year, and at times I wasn’t having a lot of fun. Now, though, it feels good to see STC where it is today, returning to health and moving rapidly into renewal. Many thanks (again!) to all of you for your support of STC, it leaders, and the profession, as it was truly a joint effort to bring STC back from the brink.
I remain on the board as the Immediate Past President (or as one former STC President put it … it’s the year you get to be the Yoda of the Board!). So that’s nice too, because we started many new things last year that will need this year to take firm hold, and I’m going to enjoy being able to support and promote those things as they come to fruition.
I’m excited about what lies ahead for STC. I hope you are too! Ciao for now!
Since Yoda you now are, with inside-out syntax you should speak. Or if that doesn’t work for you, find some other way to have fun during your year as past president. You’ve earned the right.
Right, you are! Way to have some fun, it is! But everyone understand it, will, hmm? I think not so! 🙂
