The Position Profile details information on the role of the Board Director, the current Board, Committee and Advisory Council structure, time commitments, and desirable Board competencies.

The Governance & Nomination Committee updates the competencies listed in the Position Profile on an annual basis to ensure that the Position Profile reflects the expected needs of the Institute.

 AT-LARGE DIRECTORS

On an annual basis, CBV Institute’s Governance and Nomination Committee of the Board considers the need to commence the process of soliciting indications of interest from individuals who are interested in serving as At-Large Directors. At-Large Directors may be Members (i.e., CBVs) or lay directors (i.e., not CBVs). The solicitation, assessment, and nomination of At-Large Directors is a rigorous process undertaken by CBV Institute’s Governance and Nomination Committee. At the Annual Meeting of Members, Members officially nominate new At-Large Members to the Board.

For additional information, please contact Christine Sawchuk, President & CEO (Christine.sawchuk@cbvinstitute.com).

Expressions of Interest for At-Large Positions

In order to be considered by the Governance and Nomination Committee, please express your interest by following the application process detailed in the Board of Directors At-Large Position Profile by March 31, 2025.

The Governance and Nomination Committee will identify candidates whose qualifications and experience align with the current needs of CBV Institute. Identified candidates will be asked to complete a self-assessment matrix form and go through an interview process before a final selection is made. The submission of an expression of interest does not guarantee that the candidate will be selected for interview or nomination by the Governance and Nomination Committee in the current year. However, your expression of interest may be retained for consideration in the future.
