“I am thrilled to start my term as the Membership Chair for the California Council of IAIP! This is the first position I will have held and I will look to ALL of you to help me grow, grow, grow in the year ahead!
I also look forward to meeting each of you and welcome any suggestions as to expanding our reach into the Insurance Community so that the Council can grow and in turn so will IAIP! You will find my contact information on the Council Team page.

MAKING THE ABC’S OF YOUR IAIP MEMBERSHIP
We’re hearing a lot of promises over the airways and on social media these days and the rhetoric is only going to exacerbate and grow until Election Day 2024. But there’s no kidding that if you utilize your full membership benefits with IAIP you can:
Awaken your inner insurance professional on multiple levels
Expand your networking circles
Improve your Insurance Professional skills by starting a designation program
Organizational Skills are key to helping you overcome your hidden obstacles and learn to shine in your professional, personal and social life
Update your leadership skills and unleash your hidden Insurance Professional AND make lifelong friends and have a little fun while you’re at it. Not sure how to get started?
Just ask anyone – your association’s president or membership chair, or anyone on the CA Council Team, we’re here to help make sure your membership is a bonus to you in your career – we can’t do that if we don’t know where you need help. Drop me an email and we’ll explore together!
Congratulations to our Council Director, her Team and the 3 Host Associations – Insurance Professionals of Los Angeles, Inc., Insurance Professionals of Orange County, and South Bay Association of Insurance Professionals plus all the Award Winners at the California Council Meeting this last month in Glendale - if you missed it, promise yourself to attend next year’s meeting – our Council Meeting is the one place to meet and connect with all your IAIP Peeps in the state, grab some CE & Professional Development classes, and just have a good time in general. Our biggest take-away? One Member One Vote passed – so next time you have the opportunity to vote for an officer or IAIP ballot item, DO IT. It’s part of your membership benefits – have your voice heard.
Membership is on everyone’s mind these days, so my question to you is: Why did you join IAIP and when is the last time you shared IAIP with a colleague or friend in the business? Was it for continuing education classes? Networking? Hanging out at cool places and having fun after work? Visiting nice restaurants? Polishing up your professional development skills? Let me know – we want to hear from you.
We still have openings on our Membership Team - what are the qualifications? Dedication and a willingness to try new ideas plus . Being able to wrestle social media or a keyboard helps.
Contact me at (562) 881-2701 or Gina.Patterson@roanokegroup.com if interested in joining me, Candece (your YNP Liaison), Carola (your SoCal Liaison) as we brainstorm a few ideas over virtual pizza and cokes, drop us an email or call!
