As an HOA Board member, it’s important to tap existing resources that make your housing association strong. The first place to look is your human resources… How many people contribute to making your HOA a success? There are the obvious folks: Board members, your Arizona HOA Management company, and leaders… but consider who you may be overlooking!
Consider the employees you depend on to keep your landscape beautiful and the accountants who ensure your Arizona Community Association is in good financial shape. Does your HOA have volunteers or advocates (both formal and informal) who have a positive impact? What about nearby businesses and nonprofit organizations who contribute to the well-being of the overall community? The first responders who keep your members safe? Once you begin a list of all of the necessary members of your community, in addition to members and leadership, you might be surprised at how long your list becomes! Don’t forget the media, neighbors with beautiful gardens and walkers who pick up trash!
Once you’ve identified all who make up your Community Association team, make the time to recognize the importance of recognizing each member’s distinct contributions. This is time consuming, yes, but consider the benefits of gratitude for your community as a whole, and for the leaders who practice it. (This is a task for the entire HOA Board!)
