Bob Hertel for IPCCA Board of Directors
Embedded Files
Greetings, IPCCA Homeowners. I'm Bob Hertel, and I'm asking for your vote and support for the IPCCA Board of Directors. After a distinguished career in higher education leadership, nonprofit governance, and strategic organizational management, I'm ready to bring proven expertise to our community.
Our community deserves board leadership that operates with transparency, fiscal accountability, and strategic foresight. The work of current and former board members is appreciated, but it's time for enhanced leadership and more effective management practices that serve all 1,250+ IPCCA homeowners equally.
The essence and practice of leadership in the service to others in the best interests of the community is often somewhat difficult, challenging, under-appreciated and seemingly unrewarding, but those very elements can be just the motivation that bring ourselves forward and readily accept those challenges and bring our servant leadership commitment to the forefront and serve our community's best interest!
