From the Roundtable

Recently the CACM Board of Directors completed its annual Board Visioning Retreat. Yearly the board and its CEO/President gather to consider where is CACM now, where is it going, and what influences both inside and outside the HOA industry will impact every member of CACM, whether as a manager member, management company member or Industry Partner member.

This year’s retreat included, for the first time, the Senior CACM Directors. Whether sitting in an organizational meeting at the CACM office to consider new programs and services, or sitting at a board meeting, CACM Directors, CEO Tom Freeley and all 15 Board Directors are leaders in our industry. They guide everyone in our industry or affiliated with our industry to support CACM’s vision going forward.

This Vision magazine theme is leadership. If we are a manager or management company executive, our volunteer homeowner association boards look to us as the professional leaders in the HOA industry. It’s our job to help guide them through the legal quagmires, the human resource challenges and the reality of multiple personality styles residing on the same streets. If we are an Industry Partner, our homeowner association boards look to us as for the skills and expertise to advise them and provide services to improve their communities. Services such as resurfacing streets or building a new equestrian trail.

We hope that this issue of Vision inspires you to be the best leader you can be for our industry. It is safe to say we rarely experience a dull day in the HOA world. Savor every moment as we go forth as leaders in our California homeowners association industry.

On behalf of the CACM Board, Phyllis Harkins, CAMEx, CCAM-LS., Board Chair
