e4c Board of Directors

9321 Jasper Avenue, EDMONTON, AB [map]
2-4 hours / monthly
Ongoing
Our Board of Directors is a volunteer-based Strategic Governance
board, consisting of 18 Directors, who are elected at the Annual
General Meeting (AGM) for a two or three year term, with the option
for re-election, up to a maximum of nine years on the Board.
At e4c, the CEO and the Board Chair are jointly responsible for
strategic planning. All Board Members are involved in the strategic
thinking and decision-making that informs our strategic plan. The
Board of Directors brings an outside perspective, tests the
consistency of management's thinking, provides review and approval
of major decisions, approves the strategic plan, and monitors the
progress of key initiatives and the achievement of strategic objectives
and outcomes.

Board meetings are held the fourth Thursday of the month from 5:30 - 7:30 PM. Most meetings are in person, with some virtual meetings. Additional duties include Committee meetings monthly or every other month (committee dependent). Additional commitments include but are not limited to community events, workshops, forums, trainings, conferences, and/or professional development opportunities. A Director’s time commitment is approximately four (4) hours per
month.
