Purpose of these leadership opportunities for women:
Members of the Chapter Leadership Team offer leadership opportunities for women to provide support, inspiration, and guidance to members of WEBO Network. Each Leadership Team member is also responsible for administrative duties related to their position, as well as providing support to the Chapter Managing Director when requested, and are an integral part of critical decision-making for the Chapter under the guidance of the Managing Director.
Expectations and Requirements
Chapter Leadership Team members are expected to attend a minimum of 80% of their Chapter’s events and programs throughout the year and are expected to provide support to the Chapter Managing Director as requested. In addition, the Chapter Leadership Team will meet at least once a month, in person or virtually, to coordinate Chapter business. The time required by each position varies, but is typically between two and six hours per month (which includes performing individual duties, trainings, meetings, events, programs, and all other expected activities).
As examples of our leadership opportunities for women, WEBO Network members look to the Chapter Leadership Teams for example and guidance, and we expect our Team members to conduct themselves in a professional, positive, supportive, and genuine manner.
Chapter Leadership Team members shall serve a term of one year beginning on January 1 and ending on December 31 of each year. Chapter Leadership Team members may reapply or remain on the Leadership Team for additional terms as determined by the Chapter Managing Director. If you would like to be considered for one of these leadership opportunities for women, you must be a member in good-standing at the time you submit your application and maintain active status of your membership during your entire one-year term.
