President -Board Member

Yes

The President presides over board meetings and is the “chief volunteer” and furthers the organization’s mission. The President influences how the board uses its time, the selection of board members and its future leadership. Anyone taking on this role must be committed to the organization and must understand the scope of energy and time required to effectively do the job. The President is expected to review and understand the organization's articles of incorporation and by-laws, policies and procedures, financial and legal situation, and strategic plan. The President acts as a spokesperson to the larger community. By modeling appropriate behavior, the President sets high standards for board conduct and intervenes if conflicts of interest or confidentiality issues arise. The President is in charge of coach and board member performance evaluations and succession planning, and plays a crucial role in new board member orientation. Strategic planning and fund raising are vital to the success of any non-profit organization. Presidents attend or even help to organize social functions to raise funds and maintain visibility in the community. They include demonstrated community leadership; being respected by board members; able to lead the board in handling difficult issues; and, the ability to communicate, listen and seek input from others. The President should feel comfortable delegating.
