Beltsville, MD (PRWEB) March 17, 2008
One of the document management industry's most experienced veterans was elected Chairman of the AIIM International (http://www. aiim. org) Board of Directors at the recent AIIM Expo held in Boston recently. Bob Zagami, active in AIIM and the industry for over 30 years, will serve through December 2009.
"Bob has been a leader in this industry and this association for over three decades," noted AIIM President John Mancini. "He brings a rich experience -- as a past board member, chapter leader and as a leader of AIIM's channel programs -- to his new role as chairman. We look forward to tapping into this expertise in the challenging times ahead. "
Zagami was president of the New England Chapter of AIIM 1981-1982 and developed a micrographic education program at the Horace Mann School for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing. This alliance with the Horace Mann School, and the chapter, is even stronger today with the addition of document scanning equipment and document management software training.
During his career he received the AIIM Distinguished Service Award in 1983, was elected to the Company of Fellows in 1988, received the Carl E. Nelson Engineering Award in 1993 and the Award of Merit, the industry's highest honor, in 1998. He is an international author and lecturer and a frequent speaker at document management (http://www. databankimx. com/document_management. htm) and records management events.
Dick Aschman, CEO of Databank IMX (http://www. databankimx. com/executives. htm), said, "We are very proud of Bob. We take great pride in his election by his industry peers as the Chairman of the AIIM Board of Directors. We strive to be the best document management company in the United States, and deliver outstanding customer satisfaction. It is people like Bob, and his leadership, who make that happen every day. Bob's service to the industry for 30-plus years provides experience to our company that is impossible to replicate."
Bob's skills and expertise are well known throughout DataBank IMX. His leadership as our General Manger in the New England region has allowed us to deliver many innovative document management solutions to our clients. This election speaks to the respect he has in our industry and it is well deserved."
Industry consultant Ed LoTurco noted, "As a past member of the AIIM International Board, I couldn't be more pleased to see a seasoned professional like Bob Zagami take on the leadership role of this Association. He not only brings industry experience, but the leadership to strengthen education, meet the needs of his constituents, and continue to position AIIM to meet business objectives and association challenges."
