PRESIDENT’S NEWSLETTER A Demonstration of Unity The 68th Quadrennial Convention held the week of July 17, 2017 was a grand example of unity and solidarity. As the Delegates Assembled considered matters such as constitutional changes, finances, resolutions and various other issues, it became clear that the union was of a single mind, positioned with strength and resolve to face the future. @matthewloeb MATTHEW D. LOEB Most importantly, was a unified intention to stand together to best represent the membership. And that, Sisters and Brothers, is the primary goal of the Alliance. The theme of the Convention was Growth=Strength. It is a basic principal that unions that are growing become stronger while those that are unable to grow, or lose members, are weakened. That’s why it’s imperative that we strive for the highest level of organization and IATSE union density possible. If we leave the employers no alternative but to turn to the IATSE, we control the industry and increase bargaining power. Then we can exert the strength garnered from growth to benefit the workers we are bound to represent. Too often competitive forces undermine our standards by performing our traditional work for substandard wages and conditions. This competition is an anchor to progress. The way to eliminate the competitive menace is to organize. To raise the standards of those performing the work and level the playing field with the employers. The Delegates at the Convention fully understood this necessity and wholeheartedly supported the theme through their involvement. In the last four years, we have made significant efforts to position ourselves to grow. Strategic planning and the development of The Pillars of Success are integral in the foundation for growth: Leadership, Skills and Safety Training, Activism and Communications are the pillars upon which we build. These programs have been developed to further the goal of growth, and the strength that translates in to security for the membership. As we face the challenges of the future, including vicious attacks on unions and workers, we must protect the membership by positioning ourselves to be strong, bold and formidable. The way to do this is to build strength as our most potent asset by organizing. Organizing makes us stronger, plain and simple. The Locals and International leadership showed unwavering support for this premise at the Convention. Now it’s time to put our mutual interests into motion by implementing aggressive and inclusive organizing campaigns throughout the Alliance. The time is upon us and we will succeed together. Growth = Strength. In Solidarity. WWW.IATSE.NET THIRD QUARTER 2017 5
