Greetings San Diego AIIM members and friends,
I believe this is my 6th term as AIIM chapter President. Recently, I was interviewed by Bryant
Duhon for an article in Infonomics Weekly.
Among the questions the Bryant asked were the following which I hope will
provide some insight into the value of an AIIM membership:
1.
You’ve
been on the board of the San Diego chapter since 1992. How have you kept
interest for so long in that task?
At
first it was the friendships I developed with other board members. Then as
old members drifted away and new folks joined it was the challenge of keeping
the chapter alive. These days, I look on my board member duties as a
service I can provide to the local community. For me, it is a way to give
something back to the industry that provided me an opportunity to be a
successful entrepreneur.
2.
Why
are chapters important?
Chapters
are important for two reasons: One, regular meetings provide an
opportunity for users and vendors to meet in a neutral setting designed to
information exchange in an educational manner. Two, local chapters provide
an opportunity for people in the industry to feel connected, to know that the
issues they are facing are not unique. The regular chapter meeting
provides a forum to meet people, make friends and learn something new. The
local board provides members from both the vendor and the user communities with
opportunities for professional growth.
Your
AIIM board team is committed to providing educational and networking
opportunities for AIIM members and friends of the chapter. Please feel free to contact anyone of us
with ideas you have which may increase the value our local chapter provides to
the ECM community.
Thanks,
and here's to another great year.
Barry
Brueseke, President, San Diego Chapter
