From the Roundtable

A Message From The Board

This fall edition of Vision Magazine has a theme focused on education and the tools to elevate the processes.

This is one of the areas of discussion that we had this week as we were planning for the CACM Fall Forums and how to elevate education through additional levels of engagement.

The goal is to be able to leverage our expert knowledge through an engaging, interactive sharing process- i.e. forums. The more we share and learn from each other’s experience, the better our industry becomes. We are working to put additional tools into our manager tool belts that enable us to aid our boards through the challenges of today. This would include the tool of knowing who those experts are in advance to be called to aid in the board education process. We are not expected to be the experts in everything – even though some people may think that we should be – but we are expected to know who those experts may be.

As we all know, there is a lot going on in the fall – budgets, annual meetings, elections, insurance renewals, deck inspections, reserve studies, pool closures, board meetings, landscape walks, etc. and now we throw the Corporate Transparency Act into the mix. The better we are educated to handle the time management of these many tasks, through the sharing of experiences and best practices, the better our day-to-day experience in the industry will become.

CACM is always looking for ways to improve the educational experience and the value to the continual learning process that will be necessary for success in our ever-changing industry.

And as always, remember to embrace the journey, trust the process, and never stop learning!
