July 2007
Letter From the President
Dear Valued Member:
It is with great pleasure that I announce to our
membership that Employee Services Management (ESM)
Association has named Renee Mula as Executive Director.
Please join me in congratulating her.
Renee is a familiar face to many of you. She's worked for
ESM Association Headquarters for over nine years,
primarily as Director of Communications and Editor of ESM
Magazine.
Back in January, the Executive Director Search Committee
interviewed candidates and made the decision to appoint
Renee Interim Executive Director. In this role, she was
instrumental in educating the Board of Directors on staff
needs, membership needs, current processes, and the
organization's finances. She resolved unanswered
questions, oversaw the details of the Conference &
Exhibit and focused on the future with an open approach
to communication.
With the active support of the 2006-07 Board of
Directors, and the determination of Renee and the
Headquarters' staff, this year's Conference & Exhibit
was successful, both from an attendee satisfaction
standpoint and a financial standpoint.
We are committed to listening to our members, using
technology to increase networking opportunities and
expanding our member resources to make your jobs easier.
We feel confident that ESM Association can continue to
grow and become a stronger organization.
Our goal is to increase our membership base at both the
local and national levels. Your participation and input
are essential. More members equal a stronger, more
resourceful, organization.
Partner with us to make ESM Association YOUR
organization! Please forward any membership leads to
Headquarters. Think of your friends and families and
where they work. Are there vendors you work with that may
be interested in expanding their customer base? Pass
those names along to Headquarters as well.
You will be hearing from Renee in the next couple of
weeks with a summary of the feedback we received on the
2007 Conference & Exhibit. We now need to use this
feedback and your suggestions for topics and speakers, to
put together an even more powerful 2008 event.
Remember, you make a difference!
Sincerely,
Marci Kinnin, CESP
