SABEW seeks board candidates

The Society of American Business Editors and Writers is currently seeking candidates to serve on its board of governors.

Board members help set policy and strategic direction for SABEW, and their work is vital to the operation of the organization. Board members are expected to attend two in-person meetings a year, participate actively on at least one board committee, support SABEW’s development efforts and assist with the recruitment of new members. A complete list of board duties can be found on the SABEW website.

If you are interested in serving, please send a short statement explaining your interest by Feb. 29 to sabew@sabew.org. The board’s nominating committee will consider all nominations of members in good standing.

The nominating committee will meet in March to consider all potential candidates.
