Congratulations to everyone in IABC UK - we've won the Mid-Size Chapter of the Year from IABC International for outstanding chapter management. The award was announced at the recent Leadership Institute in San Diego.
The award recognises our dedicated team of volunteer leaders and members for their commitment toward promoting the goals and objectives of IABC at the local level. We received special recognition for our financial management and leadership development. There were more than 100 IABC chapters from around the world competing, and it was no easy task filling out the five applications that we did in November.
Our Board was delighted to receive the award (see photo below) and celebrate at the pub following our 7 Feb meeting. We had just made huge strides to 215 members after more than 100 people attended the 17 Jan 'Member Introduce Member' event at the BBC.
So on this great high for the chapter, I am taking my leave to have a baby and handing over the presidency to Andrew Riley as of 1 March. I plan to return for the 13 June annual general meeting where I've got a few surprises planned. I've really enjoyed this time of leading the chapter, and look forward to more achievements in the future. All the best - Amy Moser Serao
