A Message from AIIM's Chairman of the Board, Tony Peleska

AIIM Community

I would like to introduce myself to those who do not know me. I am Anthony Peleska, CIO of Minnesota Housing Finance Agency and Chairman of the AIIM Board of Directors. As a CIO and technology leader, I became involved with AIIM to help myself, my team and my organization understand and tackle the challenges we face with people, process, information, and technology. The insight we have gained and partners we have developed through AIIM have helped us increase our profits, decrease our technology budget spending and mitigate risk at a variety of levels. Our success has fueled a passion that I want to share with others, to help them tackle the business challenges they face today through involvement with AIIM.

By now, you will have learned of the change in John Mancini's executive role -- from CEO to Advisor/Evangelist. This kind of news can be a bit disconcerting at first -- particularly given the significant contribution and commitment that John has made to this industry. I want to assure you that John is still very much involved in the strategic direction of the Association and the industry.

The Board and I have formed a transition team that has met and will continue to meet before the April board meeting. Our goal is to have a plan to discuss and review with the board at that time. As a transition team, we want to ensure a thoughtful and focused process that will help lead AIIM and the industry well into the future. In the meantime, the AIIM staff is deftly executing a solid 2016 business plan that focuses on delivering new and evolving content to help organizations with their information-intensive business processes, challenges, and applications.

This approach is paying off. Under the operational leadership of Peggy Winton, COO, we've realized some worthy accomplishments:

I look forward to seeing many of you at the AIIM Conference in New Orleans, where we are expecting 650 conference participants and 100 solution providers. Please introduce yourself to me when we pass in the breakout rooms, theaters, and solutions lounge. This is a great time to remind ourselves what it means to be a member of this vibrant AND GROWING community.

It is my intention to provide you with additional updates as needed or warranted, but the majority of future communication will come from Peggy Winton, John Mancini, and the rest of the wonderful staff who are responsible for executing the strategy and running the operations of AIIM. In the meantime, I welcome your questions, comments, and suggestions for the future of this Association.

I am so proud to be a member of this industry and this community. I am grateful that you are a member too. Together, we can do great things.

Sincerely,

Tony Peleska
