Testimonials

SFRBM has made enormous progress in the last 10 years since HPA took over its management. This has allowed the members to concentrate on the science, which is the heart and soul of the Society. HPA continues to do a superb job at taking care of all our financial, organizational, logistical, business, and other administrative affairs.

HPA's work on planning, organizing, promoting and onsite facilitation of our Annual Conference is superlative.  We are fortunate to have such experts working on our behalf.  They make it look easy, and I know that it isn’t.

Last Revised 3/6/08.
Since we hired HPA as our management firm, we have seen positive growth within our association.  HPA staff took our concerns and issues, made them theirs and with their guidance, we were able to turn our organization around.  They have demonstrated both short-term project skills and long term planning expertise. I have found the staff to be very professional and personable.

I have always felt that HPA treated our association as if it was their only client.

The leadership, organizational skills and corporate memory of HPA has made a great difference in the PDA. They are professional, supportive and innovative. From selecting venues to on-site details, their arrangements have been superb. HPA has a "can do" staff attitude - what a pleasure!

HPA does a great job of keeping the Board informed without bothering us with all the minor, day-to-day issues. Our members are treated promptly and professionally and they do an excellent job with all of our workshops and conferences with a very limited budget.

HPA does an excellent job controlling budgets and managing assets and keeping the Executive Board and officers informed of all financial situations. Every member that I've spoken to gives HPA high marks for response time and in the manner in which member requests are treated. Compared to our previous management, this has been a breath of fresh air! Since coming aboard, the guidance and direction that HPA has provided has been priceless.

HPA staff is forward-thinking in pointing out when the Board and association deviate from our written policies and procedures. They do an excellent job at making our annual conference a success! I use the service provided by HPA to WOEMA as a benchmark for ACOEM (WOEMA's parent association).

HPA is excellent at providing "heads up" on key issues. They have put together a great website for the association and made sure that our databases are now clean and accurate. Our committees are more productive and focused than they were before we began working with HPA. I am well-pleased that with the decision we made to work with HPA. CSAM is stronger as an association as a result.

HPA receives straight "A"s! In all respects, your organization embodies the professionalism and competence we all strive for but rarely attain. I can't think of one area of responsibility that you have assumed that hasn't been met with excellence. If I were to seriously consider another 17 years in association management, your company would be the model we would use.

During the time in which I worked at ISMRM, I had the opportunity to meet many association executives serving many associations. As in any profession, the abilities and conduct of these executives varied widely. The association executives at Holland-Parlette, however, always met the highest standards of the profession.
