Greetings PMI-SFBAC Members and Volunteers

The deadline for 2023 Board Member applications is February 5th, 2023 at 12:00 AM PT!!!

Now is the time to showcase your seasoned leadership skills, help drive the strategy of PMI-San Francisco Bay Area Chapter (PMI-SFBAC), and to realize the future of Management. We invite you to stand as a candidate to lead the foremost resource of Project Management in the SF Bay Area.

PMI-SFBAC is holding elections for the following positions on the Board:

• Director at Large (3-year term):  A Director-at-Large, like any other board member, has the responsibility to act in accordance with the Chapter bylaws and the governing policies of the board. The Director-at-Large has the full voting rights as all other directors but without the additional duties and responsibilities associated with being a Board Officer.
• President (1-year term) *:  The Board President serves as the Board ambassador and acts as a spokesperson to the larger community on all communications except Board delegation.
• Secretary (1-year term) *:  The Board Secretary is responsible for assuring the integrity of Board documents so that there is a complete, accurate, current, and accessible record of all board activity.
• Treasurer (1-year term) *:  The Board Treasurer is responsible for assuring that the Board achieves its fiduciary obligation to the chapter. Because of the legal ramifications, the Treasurer manages financial planning and management activities not delegated to the CEO.

 * Must be an existing Board Member to apply.
