Giving Thanks and Appreciation How many of us struggle to find time? We need time to organize our desks and files, time to compile notes from meetings, time to prepare for meetings, and—not to mention—time for actual meetings. I know…

I would like to express my sincere thanks to all of the many dedicated TSABAA volunteers who gave of their time and energy this past year to help out with the organization.

I am confident that the many capitoltalented business professionals that make up our organization’s membership will be the real difference makers in the coming biennium as state agencies continue to fulfill their missions in the face of certain headwinds.

The goal of our bimonthly training is to meet our members where they are and make it as easy as possible for them to realize some of the benefits that TSABAA can offer.

Paul Campbell October 28, 2016

I have truly enjoyed the experience and am honored to have had the opportunity to lead this great association.

Paul Campbell June 29, 2016

Summer is finally here, and hopefully you’re enjoying family vacations, the nice weather, and the somewhat reduced traffic. That also means it’s almost time to head to the coast for our 47th Annual Summer Conference, which will be held at the lovely Bayfront Corpus Christi Omni Hotel July 20–22.

Paul Campbell March 4, 2016

I hope that the majority of you were able to attend the 36th Mid-Winter Conference in Kerrville. Phillip Ashley and his committees did a great job putting together a great program, and there were some great networking opportunities as well. We value your feedback on the conference survey and will do our best to make adjustments for continued improvement.

Paul Campbell December 15, 2015

As we approach the New Year, let me again remind you that TSABAA has so much to offer anyone who is willing to take the opportunity to get involved and help facilitate new ideas and change.

Paul Campbell October 14, 2015

I feel very honored and privileged to serve as president of this great organization for 2016. First of all I’d like to thank Lori Trank for her service throughout the past six years as a TSABAA officer and wish her the best of luck in her new role with our vendor partner, Neos Consulting Group.

Lori Trank October 14, 2015

I have truly enjoyed serving as a member of the TSABAA Executive Committee these past six years, and I look forward to one more year alongside our newly elected officers serving in an advisory role.

Lori Trank May 29, 2015

I am sure everyone is feeling both the stress and exhaustion of the legislative session — hopefully, it’s almost over! I am sure we will see many changes — some positive, some not so positive — result from the hard work that you and our legislators have completed over these past months. But for now let’s switch subjects, and I will tell you about something positive to look forward to this summer.

Lori Trank February 27, 2015

I hope you were able to join us in Kerrville for the 35th Mid-Winter Conference. Paul Campbell and his committees did an excellent job. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to put on a great conference! We had a…
