Svantaggi
- Every staff has it's quirks and employees with unique work styles/personalities; SWANA is absolutely no different from any other organization. Current staff wear many hats, works hard, and plays well together. SWANA is not without hiccups but such incidents are episodic and senior management address issues as needed. - Multiple events in spring and large show in fall means long hours for many staff during the planning and promotion of these events but given the salary and support of senior management.
