CHICAGO—Two years ago, SIOR launched a major, new strategic plan, incorporating five primary areas of concentration. Two years in, GlobeSt.com once again got exclusive access to the association's new leadership—newly named president Allen Gump, president-elect Geoff Kasselman and vice president Del Markward—to discuss the progress made to date and the work that was left to do.
In a frank and freewheeling discussion, the new team discussed:
- What each of their roles has been to date in bringing the strategic plan to life;
- How each of the five points of the plan—including such critical areas as governance, thought leadership and branding—are progressing;
- Why there are no “accidental presidents” at SIOR;
- How to cope with a grinding volunteer schedule in addition to a full-time job.
