The end of an era
21
Fri, 01-01-2010 - 2:03pm
As of today, I resigned my leadership of the Movies! board. I'd felt for awhile I wasn't being the kind of leader I wanted to be in there - the kind of leader who could get people in and keep them interested, and thought maybe the new year was a time to make the break and get in some fresh blood. I just hope one of the members takes up the leadership torch. Any of them would be a great leader, and I'd hate to see the board die for lack of leadership.

 

So, after 13 or so years and many boards along the way, I am no longer an iVillage leader. It feels a little weird, lol. And, I admit, a little sad, too.

Such a hard decision to make I know only so well too,
Like you I think after awhile .. perhaps is the time.
You can always come back if you want
Hard to imagine not being a CL after all those years
Although now you'll have more free time I assume ?
Let's you do many other things.
I know we won't lose touch ..
So will say see you around :)

ETA .. sorry about the hat ::blush::

Oh, yeah, I'll still be in Movies! as a member - movies remain one of my favorite things to talk about, lol, but I just thought I'd done all I could with the board and thought that maybe someone else could bring fresh ideas to it.

Ouuu..giving up being a CL is hard. I so understand! It was very hard for me to give up being a CL of the 50 & Up board several years ago and when I did, I had to learn how to be "just" a member. I became CL soon after joining IVillage and

Well, I wasn't the Movies leader all that time, but I've had one board or another in that time.

It is a weird feeling isn't it? You and I have known each other since '96 and Soup/iV and our lives have changed a lot over the years. ((((ANN)))
