Direct link with the membership
The ASHHRA Board must develop and maintain healthy relationships with the membership, and, through linkages, help the society keep in touch with current issues in order to maintain or set strategic directions.
All board members must clearly understand that their role is to act in the best interests of the membership, supporting directions that serve all members and the health care human resources community at large. Board members should not act in a limited or representative role reflective of a given constituency with which you are or have been affiliated.
At the annual conference, the board is a hands-on group of leaders that dedicates its full time and attention to the membership. Each board member leads through their involvement and leadership during the many sessions and events. In return for a free conference registration, board members are expected to attend all events, including the board meeting, the preconference, general sessions, learning sessions, exhibit hall, and all social events. The membership supports the board and it is imperative that the membership dollars are invested wisely.
