Board of Directors Role Descriptions and Nomination Process
If you would like to serve in either your current or another role on the Board of Directors, you need to self-nominate by September 15, 2026 using the nomination form. The governance chart is below for your reference. Note the chart includes only the names of those positions that will automatically continue in 2026. Whether you are interested in nominating for a position on the IWIRC International Board for 2026 or sometime in the future, we encourage ALL members to view the recorded session (linked here) hosted in August 2022 by IWIRC Executive Board Member, Eloise Matsui, with a panel of current and past leaders who explain the rewards and the commitment involved in being a member of the IWIRC Board.
At large directors with terms that expire in 2026 have to self-nominate.
