Message from Northern Delaware Chapter President

Where does the time go! Here we are approaching the start of another school year and another National BDPA conference has come to a close. This is the time of year that we focus on bringing the year to a close with our Annual Banquet as well as formulating a strategic plan for organizational growth.

2010 has been a very productive year thus far.

• The BDPA Northern Delaware Chapter Corporate Advisory Council was established
• Our IT Showcase Students once again took leading positions during the National competition
• Our Chapter won the Chapter of the Year Chapter Management Award for the 2nd consecutive year.

In order to continue to make a difference in the Science and Technology framework of Delaware we need your help. There are several leadership positions available for those who are seeking to make a difference in the lives of students of all ages.

Please take a moment to review the opportunities and contact me directly if you wish to demonstrate your executive leadership skills while giving back to the community.

Opportunities include:
· Bylaws & Elections Chairperson
· Performance Management & Reporting Chairperson
· Leadership & Talent Development Chairperson
· HSCC Chairperson
· Grants & Proposals Chairperson

Remember: Today is the Day, The momentum is in you, and BDPA is the conduit!

I hope to hear from you soon!

With Sincere Regards,
Karen Smith, President
BDPA Northern Delaware
