Governance - National Board - Association Leader

Calling for Nominations for the Position of ASSOCIATION LEADER on the National Board.

At the National Forum in 2021 we will elect an Association Leader to join the National Board. This is an exciting time to be a part of the Governance at Guiding as we work to further embrace diversity and technology.

We are seeking applications from Leaders who can help us to expand the diversity and reach of Guiding. You will be a leader who has a passion and interest in helping the organisation grow and thrive. You will be interested in seeing Guiding grow in terms of its diversity and reach and have relevant experience which will support Board discussions around these important focus areas.

You will bring to the Board:

The ability to think strategically, with the capability to drive the organisation

towards the achievement of an exciting vision;
Knowledge and understanding of biculturalism, diversity and inclusion;
An understanding of the role and responsibilities of governance;
Expertise of Guiding and ideas about how to help the organisation grow and

transform.

You will be a volunteer adult in Guiding (female or male). Most likely this will be your first national role and with this you will bring new and different ideas.

The National Board meet for four one-day meetings per year (on weekends) and there may be a requirement for occasional teleconferences. Travel, accommodation and meals are funded.
