Each New Year brings an opportunity to reflect and plan and refocus, whether in your personal life or business.  Similar for a membership association, the New Year means taking stock and planning ahead.  At the first CALSAGA Board of Directors meeting on January 8, the Board adopted a comprehensive strategic plan for 2009 focused on moving our organization and industry forward.

Without question, securing meal period reform remains CALSAGA’s top priority, while dramatically increasing our marketing campaign is a close second.  Some of the other priorities determined by the Board include increased regional and committee activity, as well as continuing to improve on how information is communicated to members through Observed & Reported, our eNewsletter and our blog.

The plan adopted is a strategic one, and the staff team at CALSAGA is working with the Board and Committees to put the plan into action with specific tasks.  It is an ambitious plan that will take tremendous dedication from our Board, staff and members to achieve in 2009, but we are confident that through some hard work, CALSAGA will continue to achieve great things. 

This will be an exciting year, so stay tuned!
