Responsibilities Of Every Board Member Moving Forward
This list of duties is neither comprehensive nor complete. Every new board member needs to bring to
their roles an openness to grow and change. You will, in time, make this position your own, and will
have new items to add to the list.
For us to remain successful and consistent it is important that we are all well informed today as well
as tomorrow. For the next director to continue where you left off is an important step in the process,
one that has not been kept up to date as well as it should be.
I sincerely want to change that, not just for this current board of directors, but for future directors as
well. Bring us your ideas and thoughts and be willing to work together as a team and you won’t regret
investing your time with us.
