The TAASA Board of Directors Nominating Committee is currently accepting applications for consideration to the 2011 Board of Directors. We are seeking individuals who:
- Enjoy conceptual argument, differing points of view, and values clarification;
- Understand that they represent the many individual and organizational members of TAASA who have many legitimate points of view;
- Will actively seek to access and understand the membership and honor the diversity that the membership represents; and
- Welcome dissent but are(or “ will be”) able to honor group decisions once they are made.
The Board of Directors has adopted the policy governance model. Under this model the board governs through policies that establish organizational aims (ends), governance approach, and management limitations and defines the board/Executive Director relationship. The Executive Director has broad freedom to determine the means that will be used to achieve organizational aims.
The nomination committee will contact candidates before the final slate is decided for the election process. Please consider nominating yourself or someone you know who would add diversity, expertise, and broad skills to the board. If you or someone you know is interested in joining the leadership of TAASA please complete the included board application (also available at taasa.org).
