Board Resignation

Jeff_in_KC · 06-11-2009, 11:53 AM

Was told Rod Gray resigned from the KCBS board this morning. That sucks! I know Rod was a good voice for us cookers and he will be missed on the board. I only hope his replacement has all of our interests at heart and listens to cookers like Rod did. Thank you for your service to the BBQ community, Rod.

Go to your room for mentioning the other forum.

But thanks, I'm going there now to check it out.

Rod was always responsive. He was an assest to the KCBS BOD, his voice on the BOD will be missed.

Thanks everyone. I enjoyed most of my time on the board. KCBS is an awesome organization and I'm proud to be a member.

Sounds like the KCBS board is a lot like the City Council I'm a part of

Yeah, I think there is always a little dysfunction in any governmental unit, because there is always some disagreement with how things should be run, how the organization should grow etc. This is also true where I work. However, it is through a healthly discourse and ultimate compromise of our dissonant ideas that a solution comes about that is best for everyone, not just a few. The question is how much dysfunction in that process is too much--to the point that it is hurting everyone in the organization, not just the decision-makers?
