SUMMARY


      psu:ama has experienced numerous
successes and highlights during the 2009/2010
academic year, but not without encountering a
few bumps along the way.

       We feel that our ability to achieve success
and overcome obstacles along the way is
attributed to our vibrant and fun chapter

FROM THE BOARD

            This year Portland State University (PSU) underwent harsh budget cuts and as a result, the School of Business (SBA) was
   negatively impacted. Resume/interview workshops, internship counselors, and various professional development programs that the
   school once offered no longer existed. It became psu:ama’s position to step up and provide these services to members.

            As President and Executive Vice President of psu:ama we committed ourselves to growing our chapter into a strong
   professional outlet for Portland State University students. Our board’s main focus was stepping in and helping students in areas
   that the university couldn’t. We strived to empower members and business students by offering workshops, professional speaker
   events, and networking events that would help enhance their future careers. By including members in the operations of psu:ama we were
   able to deliver real value that can be carried into the future with examples of real world experiences.

                    The key to our success is not that we asked questions to our members,
                        but how we listened to their responses and were able to react.

              This simple, but important step allowed the psu:ama board to bridge the gap between ourselves and our members while
   inviting students to be part of our incredible growth. Due to the inclusion of members, we were able to host the largest events in the
   School of Business. Although we experienced a decrease in organizational funding and business resources, psu:ama provided benefits
   and opportunities to members we wouldn’t have otherwise. Our financial situation allowed us to think critically, and inspired us to be
   transparent when it came to expenses and budgeting.

             Our vision is that the psu:ama brand will become a well known icon within each community we are associated with; business,
   collegiate, non-profit, and nationally. It was an honor and a privilege to serve the members of psu:ama this year. We want to thank
   our board and membership base for their strong commitment to excellence. But, the year isn’t over yet! We have 11 more weeks to in
   which “the future looks good” at psu:ama.

            Cheers!

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

SUMMARY: Our goal was to improve professional development and
provide many of the services and opportunities that our business
program once provided with a marketing flair. To take on this big
challenge we have improved events as well as added some new
elements to the mix as described below.

11 local sustainable designers. Our committee of 12 members has been working
tirelessly since fall term to ensure this event is representative of our chapter’s
professionalism and high quality events. We are currently soliciting for $2000 in

represent the 4 regions of Portland.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

SUMMARY: Our goal was to involve our chapter
in more community based activities that helped us
to achieve PSU’s motto of “Let Knowledge Serve
the City”. A focus was placed on involving psu:ama

FUNDRAISING
SUMMARY: Our fundraising focus was initially placed on three
events but has changed direction and focus since the fall term
to rely upon the success of Cannes and the spring Fashion
Show. Even though we only have 2 main fundraising efforts,
we expect big results.

  • 3. SUMMARY psu:ama has experienced numerous successes and highlights during the 2009/2010 academic year, but not without encountering a few bumps along the way. We feel that our ability to achieve success and overcome obstacles along the way is attributed to our vibrant and fun chapter personality. Constant enthusiasm, unity, RATING SCALE: The following scale has been implemented to professionalism, and pride among 51 members evaluate activities and events based upon the following scale: has powered our chapter into becoming a well 1 = Needs Improvement/Ineffective recognized student group not only within the university, but within the community. 2 = Poor/Somewhat Effective 3 = Average/Neutral This chapter report documents 4 = Good/Somewhat Effective psu:ama’s ability to bring passion, style, 5 = Excellent/effective and urbanity to each activity.

  • 4. FROM THE BOARD This year Portland State University (PSU) underwent harsh budget cuts and as a result, the School of Business (SBA) was negatively impacted. Resume/interview workshops, internship counselors, and various professional development programs that the school once offered no longer existed. It became psu:ama’s position to step up and provide these services to members. As President and Executive Vice President of psu:ama we committed ourselves to growing our chapter into a strong professional outlet for Portland State University students. Our board’s main focus was stepping in and helping students in areas that the university couldn’t. We strived to empower members and business students by offering workshops, professional speaker events, and networking events that would help enhance their future careers. By including members in the operations of psu:ama we were able to deliver real value that can be carried into the future with examples of real world experiences. The key to our success is not that we asked questions to our members, but how we listened to their responses and were able to react. This simple, but important step allowed the psu:ama board to bridge the gap between ourselves and our members while inviting students to be part of our incredible growth. Due to the inclusion of members, we were able to host the largest events in the School of Business. Although we experienced a decrease in organizational funding and business resources, psu:ama provided benefits and opportunities to members we wouldn’t have otherwise. Our financial situation allowed us to think critically, and inspired us to be transparent when it came to expenses and budgeting. Our vision is that the psu:ama brand will become a well known icon within each community we are associated with; business, collegiate, non-profit, and nationally. It was an honor and a privilege to serve the members of psu:ama this year. We want to thank our board and membership base for their strong commitment to excellence. But, the year isn’t over yet! We have 11 more weeks to in which “the future looks good” at psu:ama. Cheers! Robyn Birkedal, President & Jennica Waltman, Executive Vice President 4
