Guest Jack Posted October 7, 2015 at 05:54 PM Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 at 05:54 PM Our organization consists of a board of directors. We then have committees for various functions and each committee has a chairperson and they report to the board of directors. In the past, if a committee chairperson ran for and was elected to the board of directors, he/she would give up the chair position of the committee that they were on. However, we now have the chairperson of one of the committees that is running for an open position on the board of directors and does not want to give up her chairperson position. We don't have anything in our by laws that cover this, does Roberts Rules cover this situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
