A message from our president

Jamaikhan Boman

2023 NOARK President

Well, we have another year on the books. Time though isn’t waiting around for anyone. As leaders, let’s continue:

Expressing Appreciation – “Your value does not decrease based on someone’s inability to see your worth.” -- Unknown 
Prioritizing Development - “If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you.  If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you.” – Zig Ziglar
Embracing Change – “Don’t be afraid of change. It is leading you to a new beginning.” – Joyce Meyer

I pulled these thoughts from the widely popular LinkedIn account Leadership First.  Founder Gifford Thomas’ compendium of quotes from thought leaders across various professions is inspiring.  Check it out for yourself by downloading his free 125-page Book of Quotes.

NOARK strives to provide our professional community with resources to elevate the employee and the employer.  Whether the topic is employee relations, compensation, DE&I, benefits, employment law, recruiting, or professional development, you can count on NOARK for assistance.  Stay connected with us via LinkedIn, monthly meetings, regional surveys, state conferences, and member connect events this year!  www.noark.org

Respectfully, JDB
