By Theresa McConeghey, Principal When I stop to think about the current activities at NADP, one word comes to mind: “transitions.” There are both internal and external transitions that will have a tremendous impact on our organization for years to come. These transitions often bring about important changes as well.
First, NADP has experienced some important transitions and changes within our own organization this year.
Likewise our industry anxiously awaits the transition of leadership in government following the 2016 elections. At this juncture, we must be prepared for the likelihood of either Democratic or Republican leadership in both Congress and the Administration. I am happy to report your NADP leaders have given careful thought and consideration on both scenarios and have developed the necessary connections to be prepared for either possible outcome. To help you digest the probable impacts of the 2016 elections, NADP is presenting an educational webinar on this topic on Nov. 15. Please see the related article for registration details. Transition and change can be positive forces. I am excited about the changes within our organization and have every confidence we will continue to advance our industry in the new political landscape following the 2016 elections. NADP’s success is powered by the involvement of our members and volunteers. I thank each of you for your continued commitment to our organization and look forward to working with you next year. As your NADP Board Chair, I’m interested in your thoughts about our association and volunteer groups. Should you have any comments or concerns about the NADP, please contact me at tmcconeghey@nadp.org. |
