Can this be contructed as abandoning their positions on the board? There is no rule in RONR that says a member cannot walk out of a meeting or that it is considered abandoning their post if they do. If you want to push the issue see FAQ #20.Is there a proper procedure for leaving a board meeting?1) Stand up.2) Start walking towards the door.3) When you reach the door open it if closed.4) Walk through the door.5) If the door was closed before, close it again.
