Why was Pinspiration formed?

Roger Dalkin left the United States Bowling Congress as its CEO after completing the organization’s transition from three separate bowling associations.  The goal was and is to create an efficient single administrative operation designed for the betterment of the sport.  Considering the size of the merging organizations and the history within the industry, the magnitude of completing the process in only three years cannot be overstated.

Prior to being selected USBC’s CEO, Roger served as Executive Director of the American Bowling Congress and its more than two million members in 2,700 local chapters.  He convinced the delegates to approve the merger, which required a two-thirds majority.  That vote effectively eliminated ABC and opened the way for the sport’s improvement and growth.

Following his retirement from USBC, Roger decided to share his expertise and experience from his world-class athletic background, business start-up experience and tenure as an executive of two major associations through one of the largest mergers in U.S. association history.

Using his entertaining speaking style, he provides “inspiration” to his audience, using America’s most popular participation sport as the common denominator.  Everyone bowls at one time or another, so what better backdrop to learn life lessons and better understand how and what needs to be accomplished to be successful?  Thus the bowling “pin” was added to inspiration and “Pinspiration” was created.
