Dear CMAA Southern California Chapter Members,

As I step into the role of Chapter President, I'm filled with a sense of gratitude and optimism. This is a time for us to reflect, celebrate our achievements, and look ahead to future opportunities.

We've reached significant milestones together, including a major revenue achievement. This success is a testament to the hard work and dedication of every member. I am thankful for your contributions, which have been crucial in our Chapter's growth.

Our Chapter stands strong today, thanks to the vision and dedication of our past leaders. Their hard work has set a high bar that we aim to maintain and build upon.

In line with CMAA’s National Vision and Mission, our Chapter focuses on being a key voice for construction management professionals. A major part of our ongoing effort is integrating program and construction management more deeply into the industry's future.

Looking forward, we have set our sights on "Workforce Development". This goal is ambitious and requires collaboration from all members, including Owners and PMCM professionals. The effort we put in now will shape our industry in the years to come.

Many of you are already contributing by mentoring and supporting the next generation. I encourage everyone to get involved in this important work. Together, we can prepare a new generation of professionals to meet the industry's challenges.

In conclusion, our Chapter is poised for an exciting future. Through our joint efforts, we can shape the future of construction management in Southern California. I invite all members to be a part of this journey, helping to build a skilled and strong workforce.

Thank you for your support and commitment to our Chapter. Together, we will continue to achieve great things.

Sincerely,

Farzad Tasbihgoo
CMAA Southern California Chapter President 2023-24
