It started with a conversation back in June….
Her: “Hey Baldini, did you know there’s a seat coming up for election in September for the MIBOR Board of Directors?”
Me: “Nope, but I wish whoever is running good luck.” {heavy amounts of sarcasm was used here…}
Her: “Why don’t you run for the position?”
Me: “Me? Are you <BLANKING> Crazy? No way….I have my brokerage company to run, I’m already on the BLC Technology Committee, 3 kids, a wife….”
Me, again: “And besides, I don’t think MIBOR staff would want me on their Board given I speak my mind quite strongly at times on subjects I’m passionate about, like the Landlord Registration ordinance & technology issues.”
Her: “That’s EXACTLY why you need to run. The Board needs just those qualities–people who are thinkers and action makers, not a bunch of Yes-Men or Yes-Women who go along with the status quo.
They need Directors who can see where the industry is going and keep its members relevant to the consumers….
{Her verbal berating of my hesitancy went on for longer than I care to describe here…..it was longer than a church service baptizing quintuplets}”
When she finally stopped talking…
Me: “I hate you, you know that?”
Her: “Yes, I know. But YOU know I’m right.”
Me: “You suck….ok, what’s involved?”
So, now that you know that I’m a Candidate for the Board position, keep watching for some upcoming posts on why She (and a few others) think I should be your next District 5 Director for MIBOR…
Thank you in advance for your support and for sharing this message with your friends.
Your servant leader,
