Need Help Putting Together Effective Leadership?

Written by NAMA on Thursday, November 2, 2017 , 2:22 pm

Make sure you are presenting the role in terms of time to prospective board members. Starting off the conversation with a simple question, “Can you commit 2 hours a month?” Be as accurate as possible on your time estimate and be clear about the responsibilities of the position.

For committees that require a lot of time, such as Chapter Programs, why not have two co-chairs rather than one chair? If you have any questions or concerns about adding members to your board, please contact Debbie Brummel at the National NAMA office for assistance.
