Craig Lowenthal has a few goals in place as he begins his 12-month term as president of IASA, but it's a second title--specifically, volunteer evangelist--that he plans to present to the membership when he addresses it this morning.

While Lowenthal, who recently joined Glatfelter Insurance Group as a social media strategist, has been involved with IASA for 20 years, it took eight years for him to begin volunteering his time for the association.

"Volunteering for IASA actually is an additional method of learning that isn't as obvious as the traditional methods," he says. "Volunteering provides skills and knowledge that help bring out each member's general skills, making him or her a better candidate for promotion. That's been a key to my career."
