Re: US Politics: Consolidation Questions
Text:
Just this evening received a copy of the revised bylaws for the proposed
consolidated organization and please forgive me but I have more questions.
Is my understanding correct in that within the new organization ABC certified
practitioners are on the same plane as ABC Registered Associates - Active
Practitioner. Are ABC Registered Associates allowed full membership in the
Academy today?
Will honorary memberships in the Academy carry across if the honoree member
so desires? Will they be asked first if they wish to be a part of this new
organization?
Is Allied Company Member a new category of membership?
Under Article III - Board of Directors - Composition - The Directors are
selected evenly from the two Classes of Membership. I would feel more
comfortable if the word selected were replaced with the word elected.
Regarding two business directors by companies with 200 or more facilities. Is
there a precedent for this in other organizations that can be named?
Duties of the officers of the organization have been outlined what/where are
the duties of the Directors?
The Board shall hire an Executive Director as the chief staff officer to
manage the day to day function of the Association. As I understand it this
is the very heart of the matter and why the proposed consolidation. Will some
elaborate on this and tell us why this will not be problem in the new
organization as it was before?
Thank you for suffering through my questions.
