Thinking
about a PRSA leadership
position? Here is a link to
PRSA documents and information about
the 2009 National Board Nominating
Process: Nominating
Web pages. Let
me encourage you to consider an
active role on the board. This
year, there are three opportunities
for which a candidate from the East
Central District may apply:
Candidates
seeking a director-at-large
position have no geographic
restriction and can be from anywhere
in the world. The following
requirements must be met: 1) Be a
member in good standing; 2) Be
Accredited in Public Relations; and
3) Served as a voting Delegate in at
least one National Assembly or as a
Chapter President, Section or
District Chair, or as Chair of a
National Committee, National
Advisory Board or National Task
Force.
Assembly
Delegates are to be active and
informed members of the PRSA annual
business meeting termed
"Assembly Meeting." The
Delegate-at-Large represents members
who do not reside in an area served
by a Chapter. The International
Delegates-at-Large represent members
outside the United States and
Canada.
If
you know of someone within your
chapter who would be a good
candidate for national office,
please send me their name and
contact information. As the ECD
representative on this year's
Nominating Committee, I've been
asked to submit names of possible
candidates.
Feel
free to contact me if you have
questions.
