President’s Message
by i-SIGMA
It has been noted by analysts that over the past 20 years, there were actually only about 100 days when stock markets made huge upward gains. If your money was pulled out and your investments missed those 100 days of huge gains, your 20-year ROI would be a negative.
Conversely, there were also roughly an equal number of days over the past 20-year span where the stock market losses were HUGE. If it were possible to have pulled out your money and skipped those loss days, then place your money back in…and still be there for the HUGE win days, your investment portfolio ROI would be incredible.
If only we could predict the future!
My time serving as the elected president of i-SIGMA has been a year of significant and positive professional gains for me. It has been a year that I am pleased to have experienced and not to have missed. I started serving with NAID in 2012 as part of the inaugural CSDS Board of Regents. I was appointed to the Complaint Resolution Council in 2015 and then in 2016 to the NAID Board of Directors. Ten years later, my respect for the precedents, purpose, value, and strength of the association’s members is real.
Had I made the mistake of getting burnt out with the volunteer time commitments and prematurely stopped serving, I would have missed out on so much.
It has been a pleasure to serve closely with Bob Johnson, and i-SIGMA staff over this year. I thank them for their abundant “behind the scenes” labor and support on our behalf. I have been motivated and encouraged to work harder within my own business… to clean up loose ends and make my own company even more secure as I experience their individual excellence.
It has been my distinguished honor to have been heard by my Director-peers, and to likewise hear them as we have led out in i-SIGMA success on behalf of you.
May the rising generation of i-SIGMA elected-leadership be even better than we ever were, and may all of you, at your work, always be safe, secure, and successful.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
Brock Miller, CSDS
i-SIGMA President
