At present, a role in records management is not the path to the executive
table. Proficient recordkeepers rise to become system administrators or
Records Managers. Capable Records Managers rise to become Information
Managers. And that?s generally where the career path comes to a halt. From
there any career progression is a result of moving between organisations
whilst remaining within the records/information management stream.
There is a perception, and in many cases a reality, that Records Managers
do not have the capability to add value at the most senior levels. Coupled
with this, people experienced in the function of records management do not
have a representative to fight for them at the executive table.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
