[Info Session] Volunteer Now to Serve on the OEMBA Board

Updated: May 17

Attend our upcoming information session on May 16 at noon. Or, skip the session and apply now to serve on the board.



The session has passed. However, we were able to record the first half.


See below for job descriptions and timelines.


 
 

Attend our info session on Thursday, May 16, at noon to learn about board member responsibilities, time commitments, and more. Get all your questions answered.


Or, skip the info session and apply to serve on the board now:


Serving on a board offers so many benefits: honing your strategic planning, financial decision-making, public speaking, and leadership skills; and articulating ideas and negotiating. Plus, you get to meet lots of cool new people and "Board Member" looks great on your resume and LinkedIn profile!


Most of the current board has served since August, 2022. We're looking for new feet to fill our shoes in the following positions (some roles may be combined at the discretion of the board):


  • President* — Lead strategic planning initiatives and oversee board governance responsibilities


  • Vice President* — Lead strategic planning initiatives and oversee board governance responsibilities


  • Secretary/Treasurer* — Take meeting minutes and provide additional support to the board. Safeguard funds, maintain records, and report financial status.


  • Events Officer* — Lead management of in-person and online events.


  • Marketing Officer — Provide consistent outreach to our EMBA community through the website, newsletters, flyers, event support (graphics, ads), etc. (This could be split into multiple positions.)

  • Social Media Officer — Manage social communications on LinkedIn and Instagram.

  • IT/Technology Officer — Manage Teams, Eventbrite, Microsoft account, Sharepoint, etc.

  • Cohort Liaisons — We'd love to have a representative from each cohort since the EMBA program started. The liaisons will be the communication glue between their respective cohorts and the board.

  • Other


* Required in bylaws


Board positions last from one to two years with an opportunity to renew. The group meets once per month, with additional ad hoc meetings in preparation for events. Most meetings are held virtually, with one or two in-person per year. Time spent doing your board job is typically 4-8 hours per month.


Important dates:


  • May 16: Info session, noon

  • May 23: Applications due to join '24-'25 board

  • June 6: New board confirmed

  • June 20: Final board meeting for current board; new board members invited to attend

  • June 30: Term ends for six of the current board members

  • July 1: New OEMBA Board terms begin
