Đề cử các thành viên Ban Quản trị (thay mặt cho Eliza May, Chủ tịch Ủy ban Đề cử Tạm thời)
I want to share a quick overview of the process we’ll be using for the upcoming officer elections, which will be included on the December 17th Board of Managers Nominations Committee meeting agenda.
At our December 5th Hội đồng quản lý meeting, I announced that the Nominations Committee will meet at 2:30 p.m. on December 17th. The committee members are Dr. Manuel Martin, Cynthia Valadez, and Chair Ann Kitchen. I also shared that I would be accepting nominations by email. The deadline to submit those nominations is Thursday, December 11, at 11:59 p.m.
As you reflect on the upcoming elections, there are two key questions that should guide your thinking:
- Do you want to nominated yourself for a particular office (or offices)?
- Do you want to nominate someone else for a particular office (or offices)?
Before making those decisions, I encourage you to review Article VI – Officers of the Board in the Bylaws. It outlines the responsibilities associated with each officer role. As you consider either nominating yourself or someone else, please also think about whether you or the individual being nominated bring the following:
- Enough time to fully engage in the responsibilities of the office.
- The skills needed to carry out the work effectively.
- A collaborative approach and respect for the roles of fellow officers.
- Personal qualities that support and strengthen the Central Health leadership team, including Board members and Central Health’s professional staff.
We will be using the same process followed in electing our current officers, as described in Sections 6.4–6.9 of the Bylaws. During the December 17 meeting, the Nominations Committee will review all nominations received, consider any additional nominations from committee members, and vote on nominees for each office. Only the committee members will be allowed to make nominations at the committee meeting. The committee will present a slate of recommended officers to the full Board for consideration and approval.
Per guidance from our attorneys at Travis County Attorney’s Office, please do not discuss these issues with your fellow Board Managers in any way that would violate the Open Meetings Act (no discussions with more than two other Board Managers just to be safe, or more than one member of the Nominations Committee if you are on that committee).
