My name is Lance Charles. I’m a longtime listener member and volunteer running for the local station board.
This is my first time running for the bard and getting involved with KPFK beyond just answering phones. I come to help KPFK in whatever way is appropriate to maintain the ongoing wellbeing of the station and to carry forward the mission of KPFK and Pacifica around the world, in other words I come with an open mind and no agenda other than to be of service to KPFK and Pacifica in maintaining the integrity of the Mission Statement. I’ve read the Mission Statement and I’m dedicated to that mission in my life and in my work and you can be sure I will retain that dedication as long as I’m on the board.
I have been, a whole systems designer in Los Angeles. I have also designed and organized special events both large and small. I know how to work under pressure and meet important deadlines. I loathe procrastination. I love to get the job done on time, on budget.
I want to do everything I can to help Pacifica remain committed to noncorporate ownership as it remains one of the only ways left to give listeners the kind of truthful and objective programming they can’t get anywhere else. I have more ideas about what KPFK can do which you can read in the questions and answers on-line. But I don’t think that’s necessarily what this job is about. Pacifica has decided to try this form of democratic board governance to help run the station. And to that end, I would like to be a part of maintaining the good that KPFK is and participate in helping KPFK realize it continued potential.
I think I have the qualities it takes to provide good governance and I’d like your vote. My name is Lance Charles. Thank you. |
