SITE Announces Reorganization and leadership changes.

Dear Site Friends, 

After 4 exciting years in the International Board of Directors of Site, I am starting a new Site life as Director of Financial Development. In this role I will look for strategic partnerships with companies and organizations around the world, which believe in promoting our industry and Site. 

With the financial support of these companies we have the chance to start new initiatives and strengthen the financial base of Site. This will benefit our members all over the world as we try to focus on global connections with a regional impact, better education on different levels, great networking possibilities and healthy business results. 

I reach out to all of you to assist me in this challenging task. If you have ideas who I should approach or even better, if you want to support Site financially, please do not hesitate to contact me. I always considered Site to be a family and within a family one supports each other. I will be traveling to a lot of Site and industry events, I hope to have the chance to meet many of you. 

Kind regards, 

Joost de Meyer
First Incentive Travel
   
Excerpt from the article;

The third position, director of financial development, will be filled by Joost De Meyer, a current Site board member and chairman and CEO of Orlando-based First Incentive Travel. Calling him “an amazing ambassador for Site,” Mahoney says De Meyer “will relinquish his seat on the board to take on this role. He will be seeking strategic partnerships and sponsorships and raising funds.” 

Indeed, one reason for De Meyer’s new position as director of financial development is to assist Site chapters with these events as well as provide both members and Site’s regional and national chapters more tools and resources, including research, publications, and education.
