My village is finally getting a contested election for the school board for the first time in forever (I’m a big Frozen fan). One of the incumbents is one of those who went into volunteering to make money and money for his kids while he doles out school district jobs for friends and family. 9 years in his position and he can’t cite anything he’s done that has benefited the school district, while it suffers since he’s been in the position.
As a retirement plan provider, your chances of being retained are by citing what you have done and what is best for the retirement plan and the plan sponsor. In a show and tell world, show does it all. If you can’t cite positively what you’ve done for the plan, your charm and personality aren’t going to help get you retained.
