Decision Time IABC Fort Worth is at a crossroads — invigorate or disband. A recent survey garnered useful preferences for meeting times, locations and topics, but only one of the 23 respondents expressed willingness to take a leadership role. A self-imposed deactivation deadline of Sept. 9 looms. Contact IABC lifers Melyssa Prince ([email protected]) or Tim Tune ([email protected]) with your ideas and inspiration, your energy and commitment and maybe a plan. And do it, Tune says, “immediately.” “Without steady leadership and support from volunteers, the IABC Fort Worth chapter is unsustainable,” Prince and Tune wrote to chapter members in August. “However, we could save the chapter if more members or interested communications professionals would commit to leadership or other volunteer roles. We could once again offer members and nonmember participants the value they expect and deserve.” Should the chapter go away, members would have the option of shifting to another chapter.
