Motion Of No Confidence In Jim Belli to serve the members of the ISBA

GO APRIL!

The ISBA needs leadership that will allow letters to the editor to be printed in the newsletter when it is regarding the behavior of its president. Jim Belli should also apologize before he resigns for giving MONSANTO a certificate of appreciation.

Suck it Jim Belli~

HOI Bee Keepers

do not like his tactics

Please state if you are an ISBA member. Thank you.

you shpuld never make decisions on your own without others inpit. That is a recipe for diaster

Do the right thing Belli, remove yourself from OUR organization. You no longer, nor have you ever, had anything positive to add to this beekeeping organization.

Please send this to other ISBA members so we can be counted!

Resignation should not be limited to Belli, it should extend to any board member that allowed any verbal abuse of any member or participated in any misrepresentation of ISBA mambers.

Resigning is your best option Mr. Belli

You may wonder why I am not a current member of the ISBA and why I have not attended meetings. It is because of the bullish behavior I have encountered when dealing with Jim.This spring I suggested incorporating a Youth Development and Retention Committee to encourage the youth to join the ISBA. I proposed the idea to Jim, was told that he would bring it up to the Board and let me know. I have yet, to this day, to hear from Jim. This is not the only instance. I refuse to support and organization that DOES NOT treat its members with respect or take its members consideration to heart. Mr. Jim Belli is a bull that only wants the organization to achieve what HE wants it to achieve. As a collegiate student that is involved in NUMEROUS student and professional organizations, I have never experienced an organizational leader that has showed such disloyalness to the organization and its member. I hope we can see this through and the organization is able to replace Mr. Belli with a leader that is much more supportive of the members and the organization

A true leader respects the people he/she purports to lead. A leader follows the rules of the organization. A leader puts the goals and needs of the organization above other considerations. You, Mr. Belli are no leader. Indeed, with your attitude and modus operandi do not even make a good member.

Hello All Illinois State Beekeepers Association Members- Enough is enough! As a dues paying member, I personally experienced the bullish behavior and his disregard of the association's bylaws when working on the early stages of the 2013 Summer Meeting. Jim's actions was not acceptable behavior nor pleasant to experience. It is now evident that similar behavior has been repeated over and over again to different members who volunteer to contribute to our state organization, all with no consequences to Mr. Belli. It is time to remove this person from any leadership position. The record shows, he has not corrected his behavior and has escalated his negative behavior again this month. Larry Studer

I've maintained my distance from ISBA events because of Mr. Belli, I refuse to support an organization where the President and any officers make decisions that are self serving and do not tolerate bullying of those who do not agree.
