May 25, 2010 PhilCAS is having its Annual General Meeting on the 28th of May. Every two years, PhilCAS revisits its list of Board of Directors. This year (2010) is that year when most Board members have completed that magic number of 2 years. This year, we need to fill up 10 Board positions. And this year.... we are looking to having representation from the youth (must be 17 & above). Every member has equal opportunity. Every member can be nominated to the Board. Every member should aspire to become a Board Member. It is a good thing. Why it matters to serve PhilCAS as a Board Member? There are many reasons for that. The core reasons are: - to learn leadership - to practice leadership - to challenge yourself - to help improve our Society (in so many tangible and intangible ways) etc... - and all of the above by DOING IT, not by reading about it nor by looking how others are doing it. Nominate somebody you know who you think is qualified to join the Board.... or you may nominate yourself. Below are the various positions/roles of a Board Member: 5 Executive Board: 1. President 2. VP of Finance 3. VP of Membership 4. VP of Programs 5. VP of Communications (5 Members at Large)
