<br /> <br /> Letter of Intent: Keana for President <br />My name is Keana Baylis, this will be my upcoming 2nd <br />year on the Inclusive Procurement Board, and I am <br />running for President. I am running for President because I <br />believe I have the experience and passion necessary to <br />guide our board to achieve our overall goals. <br />My experience comes from being on previous boards in <br />high positions such as the Vice-Chair for the Regional <br />Advisory Council in Indiana. My passion of leadership and <br />community involvement is paramount. I’ve served South <br />Bend as a Minority Women Small Business for over 7 years. <br />I’ve been inducted in the National Society of Leadership <br />and Success. Additionally, I’m a Success Educator <br />assisting start-ups and expansion of other business <br />worldwide. <br />I have three primary goals/innovative ideas for my <br />position: focusing on Community Outreach, <br />Communication, and Leadership <br />1. Community Outreach – getting the city more <br />involved in small minority business ownership. We <br />can start with building our mailing list and contact <br />information and providing more active presence in <br />South Bend events. <br />2. Active Communication – I believe we can improve <br />upon being ensuring our community is <br />knowledgeable about Inclusive Procurement’s <br />duties and functions. We want the residents of <br />South Bend and Michiana to see what our board <br />has to offer specifically regarding the certification <br />process. I also believe that the board has a unique <br />opportunity to further the knowledge base of its <br />minority residents. With the hopes of providing <br />employment and business revenue for generations <br />to come. <br />3. Leadership – I would guide the team of board <br />members, collaborating to achieve board <br />objectives. Achieving delegation and <br />knowledgeable skills to meet the goal of assisting <br />small businesses <br /> <br />I believe that I am the best candidate for this role, and I <br />sincerely hope the council chooses me. Thank you for <br />your consideration of me for President of the Inclusive <br />Procurement Board. <br />KEANA <br />BAYLIS <br /> <br /> <br />CONTACT <br /> <br />EMAIL: <br />keanambaylis@gmail.com <br /> <br />
