President's Message

ARMA Utah-Salt Lake Chapter
June 22, 2010

 

As the ARMA Utah-Salt Lake Chapter brings its year-long celebration to a close and prepares to reach the milestone of its 30 th year in existence, we reflect on what ARMA has meant to us as individuals, as community leaders, and most importantly as Records and Information Management professionals. We are a team that strives to add value in both human and professional terms and, as a result, the Chapter has lived up to and gone beyond its mission to “advance the practice of records and information management by consistently offering high quality educational and networking opportunities”. We make our business to reach out to underserved populations throughout the state and work hard to serve a vast geographic area that stretches from northeastern Utah into northwestern Nevada and from Utah's northern border to its southern border and we maintain a membership that represents this geographic diversity. We care about all of our members, our service providers, and community, building productive relationships on a daily basis. We are strong in all areas of Chapter operations and leverage our collective talents effectively. We believe in the value of membership in ARMA International and work to maintain its high standards for professional conduct and service to its membership and the communities where we live. We know from experience that the “whole is greater than the sum of its parts”.

 

I have proudly served as President of this Chapter of ARMA for the last year and a half and I am grateful for the opportunity to lead such a dynamic and talented collection of professionals. I have been so inspired by the experience that I applied for and was appointed to a two-year term as Region Coordinator in the ARMA Pacific Region beginning July 1, 2010. I will continue to serve on the Chapter Board of Directors next year as Immediate Past President and will remain active in the chapter until I am “old and gray”. Thanks for all you do for me, for each other, for the profession and for the community. Few experiences in my career can match the awesome experience of leading the ARMA Utah-Salt Lake Chapter!

 

Best wishes for continued success!

 

Regards,

David Fleming
Chapter President 2009-2010
