Board Selection 

We are in the midst of short listing the Board candidates and from the  116 applications in total  the majority of the applications  were board applications.     The process currently involves all the applications  to be  reviewed and we had three options  which are   Proceed,  Discuss and Not proceed.  At  this stage of the  assessment we have roughly 20  short listed and this selected group will be willowed down to 14  candidates  for the  three available board opportunities.  Note  that  all  three existing board members are reapplying for the board.

Final  comment

Given the Covid 19 restrictions  this year as last year means alot of Zoom calls combined with the extended protocols of NOMCOM  which requires substantially more time and effort.  Despite this extra work it's a great opportunity to NARALO members to consider the opportunity to serve the community and meet other constituencies and build a greater understanding of the membership
