Who attends executive board meetings?

[Guest BJ]

Our board has called an exec board meeting to audit the treasuery. I can not find on this site who is supposed (or not) to attend. I was told board members, Pres & VP only. But I did see here that we could have special  invities. But what about the secretary? Wouldn't they be included in an exec meeting?

A meeting of the Board (by whatever name) MUST include at least an invitation to ALL board members to attend.  Is the Sec listed in your bylaws as a member of your Exec Board?

Thanks JD! I will have to check the bylaws but I think so. We are a small group but trying to follow order.

All board members (whoever that may be in your organization) have the right to attend. Whether others can attend is at the board's discretion.

 

In the rather unlikely event that the Secretary is not a member of the board and the board chooses not to let the Secretary attend, the board should make sure to elect a Secretary Pro Tempore for the meeting.

Do you mean the your Executive Board has called a meeting or do you mean that your Board has called a meeting which will be held in executive session?
