Ask any Past APPA President about his or her experience in that role, its value for their ca-
reer, and the importance of APPA to the profession of facilities management, and you will
hear a recurring theme: Presidential accomplishments focus on moving the association
and profession forward, and being involved in APPA yields both professional improvement
and personal enrichment.
To help celebrate APPA's milestone centennial year, several past presidents reflect on
their accomplishments and experiences, and provide a strong foundation for the future.
