ISA Seeks Qualified Nominees for the ISA Board of Directors and the Nominating and Elections Committee
 

Deadline to Submit Nominations is 12 November

The purpose of this notice is to solicit nominations from ISA members to fill director and committee positions that will become open in August 2023. ISA members can nominate ANY current ISA member (including themselves) in good standing.

ISA’s Board of Directors (“the Board”) consists of the president, the president-elect, and thirteen directors. Three directors are elected by the Council of Representatives (CoR) and ten are elected directly by ISA members.

Any ISA member in good standing is eligible for nomination. If you would like to nominate yourself or someone else as a candidate for the Board or the NEC, please send the name(s) to Keisha Delaney at ISA.

The Nominating and Elections Committee (NEC) will review all nominees and develop the ballots. Having a wide range of nominees from a variety of ISA components and sectors of the industry (commercial/residential, education, municipal, research, and utility) helps the NEC develop the best ballots. The NEC uses the following criteria to evaluate nominees’ qualifications:

• ISA member in good standing
• Past contributions and service to ISA and ISA components
• Past contributions and service to other professional organizations in arboriculture and related fields
• Past service in committee and leadership roles both within and outside of ISA
• Professional work experience in arboriculture and related fields including research activities
• Professional education and training in arboriculture and related fields
• Achievement of Board diversity, including field(s) of expertise and geography
• Recommendations
• Any other relevant considerations

The closing date for Keisha Delaney to receive these nominations is 4:30 pm Eastern Time on 12 November 2022.

Please consider nominating someone (including yourself); ISA is a great organization thanks to your participation in the vital process of nominating and electing qualified candidates to the Board. Thank you for your help.
