BOARD POSITIONS - DESCRIPTION
OF RESPONSIBILITIES
Please review the position descriptions and
consider nominating yourself or someone else to the position.
We've included a paragraph from each person currently holding
the position so that you get a personal sense as well as official
sense of the role, responsibilities and the opportunity of
each position.
VICE PRESIDENT/PRESIDENT ELECT
In case of the absence or disability of the
President, or at his/her request, the President Elect shall
perform all of the duties of the President. The President
Elect shall perform such duties and have such authority as
from time to time may be assigned by the President or the
Board. The President Elect normally selects a special program
or leadership project to spearhead during the year and learns
the role of president through observation and assisting the
president.
(The President-Elect is a 3-year position:
President-Elect in 2007, President in 2008 and Immediate Past
President in 2009)
"The position of President Elect
has not only been rewarding for me, but also a nice and gentle
path to learning what I need to know to lead the organization
next year. What's rewarding about moving into a leadership
role for me is the ability to do things that only work within
an organization. I like running a small one-person business,
but the impact is more "one person at a time". Within
our group I've been able to work on bigger projects that involve
more people, more synergies, more impact.
Patricia and I have a standing weekly
call, and it's nice to be supportive of her and get support
from her on an ongoing basis while learning the ropes. I expect
to work very closely with the next President-Elect as well,
not just for training purposes, but for the natural support
you get when you can share your goals, needs, and challenges.
We have a great team and the feeling I get when we work together
is not only one of excitement and intellectual challenge,
but also of warmth and support. It's definitely a team worth
joining!"

and have the binder present at all meetings of the Board and
membership. The binder shall include meeting agendas, minutes,
policies, procedures, Board decisions, guidelines, Financial
Reports and other proceedings of the Board and organization

"Working on the ICF-OC Chapter leadership
team has given me the opportunity to get more involved with
the Mission and Vision of ICF Global as it has contributed
to my growth as a professional coach. My team members are
a group of inspired and enthusiastic professionals with a
common goal...to make our Chapter "the" place for
coaches to go for support and continuing education. As Secretary,
I hear and record all of the Chapter's ideas and aspirations,
as well as get to know each director position as it pertains
to responsibilities and needs. I have enjoyed this role immensely
and would recommend the position to any member wanting to
learn more about our Chapter."

TREASURER
The Treasurer shall perform the organization's
official financial transactions and keep accurate books of
the organization's accounts. The Treasurer will present for
the Board a Financial Report at its meetings.
"It has been my pleasure to serve
as Treasurer for 2006. I have been involved in a great team
of chapter leaders to create vibrant events and programs for
coaches of Orange County and those interested in coaching.
The specific tasks of Treasurer‹keeping the books, making
payments, and creating financial reports‹have drawn
on my liking for playing with numbers and given me a break
from people-oriented, interpersonal interactions involved
in coaching. I have also learned a lot about the business
of coaching just by being around other leaders in coaching
and seeing how they do things. If you like doing simple math
and like keeping things organized, the position of Treasurer
gives you the opportunity to do these tasks and grow as a
coach as well!"
