Candidate’s Statement
As a great philosopher once said, "the times they are a-changin'." The next few years will prove critical for the Communications Society’s development as the leader in communication information and activity. The Internet is putting pressure on conferences and publications. We must adapt to changes that occur by foreseeing their impact and responding quickly to the unexpected. With 20 years of Communications Society involvement and being active in technology that affects the Society, I am in a unique position to influence and guide the Society over the next three potential difficult but exciting years.
