“Imagine
for a moment,
if you will, the
sheer joy of learning
that a project
you helped to
initiate was accepted
and approved for
a $465,000 award.
Then feel the
panic set in when
you realize that
you alone are
responsible for
the selection
of vendors and
justification
and expenditure
of funds, answerable
to both your own
institution and
to the contributing
foundation.
This
is exactly how
I felt quite some
time ago. The
stress continued
to build when
it came time to
select the company
for the focus
groups that were
to occur. That
was until I met
Barbara Allan
from SRA. I had
taken the time
to interview several
individuals with
the necessary
qualifications,
and it became
clear to me that
SRA was a perfect
match for Barry
University Alumni
Relations.
I
especially appreciated
the upbeat solution-solving
techniques SRA
initiated when
we had run into
some external
roadblocks. What
had initially
been arduous for
me soon became
a challenging
and enjoyable
adventure; and
I have SRA to
thank for the
transformation.
I
was saddened when
the project was
over, but came
away totally enriched
as an individual
and as a professional
armed with undeniably
qualified research
that is being
utilized daily
to chart our future
path.”
