I think it is good to have a change in President every 2 years, both for the benefit of the Association (fresh face, fresh ideas) and for the President. I won’t try to pretend that it’s not a time consuming role, but I think I have made it appear more work than it actually is. I am not very good at delegating and many of the things I’ve done over the past 2yrs in the role could and perhaps should have been delegated to other Committee members.
