Thank you for considering me as a trustee. I am seeking your vote as an Eastern Trustee for AHRMA. My name is Mark Morrison. I live in central Illinois where I retired from 42 years at the nation’s largest personal lines insurer. I am a avid long time motorcyclist with a passion for racing vintage motorcycles and believe I have the skills, and experience needed to successfully serve AHRMA’s membership.
I bring many valuable skills, experiences, and values to the trustee position. When I was younger I raced motocross, road race currently, and ride and restore both vintage and modern street bikes. Second, I have experience serving on Boards helping guide their organizations. Finally during my career, I managed many large construction projects which involved critical thinking, working with people, managing resources, budgets, and deadlines.
In my opinion, AHRMA is currently a vibrant and successful Club resulting from solid leadership and member dedication. But there are always ways to make it better. Thomas Edison once said “There’s always room for improvement – find it.” I want to help influence that improvement and give back to AHRMA making a positive and lasting impact.
My Goals:
- Continue to build upon the success AHRMA is currently enjoying and lead the strategic development of the Club. Ensure we are forward thinking and dedicated to our mission.
- Focus on the big picture and how my actions can affect the overall success of the Club.
- Build relationships with members and trustees. Be open and accessible to member’s feedback, ideas, and concerns. Everyone brings something to the table. Bringing those items to the rest of the Board for discussion and consideration in a positive and supportive way.
- Demonstrate common sense. Be open to changing my views if the need arises.
- Give back to the Club and members by serving you and returning the generosity and kindness members have shown me.
- Be a good steward of Club money, running the Club as efficiently as possible while still meeting our objectives. Allocating Club money frugally as if it was my own. In addition, I want to explore opportunities for other revenue streams.
Hopefully I have earned your vote for trustee. I welcome the opportunity to discuss my qualifications and ideas with members. Please reach out to me with your questions.
