LANNON STONEMEN BOARD POSITIONS
| Role | Required to Attend Monthly Board Meetings? | Role Definition |
|---|---|---|
| President | 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. |
| Vice President | Yes | Working with the board of directors, the Vice President plans, develops and enforces policies and objectives for the organization to ensure it maintains its values and meets established goals. Under the direction of the President or board of directors, a nonprofit Vice President helps manage activities of the organization to meet its overall goals. Because most nonprofit organizations rely on donations from the community and individuals interested in the organization's success, the Vice President creates public awareness initiatives and ensures the organization is visible to the community and those interested in assisting. This may include assigning staff members to coordinate fundraisers, community events and other programs to create responsiveness to the organization. |
| Secretary | Yes | The Secretary position of a non-profit organization plays a critical role in fostering communication and diligence through proper management and utilization of important records such as meeting minutes and the organization?s bylaws. The Secretary position has wide-ranging responsibilities, requiring much more than simply being present at all board meetings. The Secretary is an active conduit for communication by giving proper notice of any meetings and timely distribution of materials such as agendas and meeting minutes. Additionally, the Secretary should be knowledgeable of the organization?s records and related materials, providing advice and resources to the board on topics such as governance issues, amendments to the state laws, and the like, that will assist them in fulfilling their fiduciary duties. As the custodian of the organization?s records, the Secretary is responsible for maintaining accurate documentation and meeting any legal requirements such as annual filing deadlines. The Secretary is responsible for reviewing and updating documents as necessary and ensuring all documents are safely stored and readily accessible. |
