MOSES Announces Changes to President’s Term and Succession Plan
The MOSES Leadership Board recently adopted a change to the President’s term of office and created two new roles. Currently, the President serves a two-year term and can be re-elected for a second term. The new approach, which was adopted to create a smoother leadership succession, provides three roles serving one year each: a President-Elect, a President, and an Immediate Past President.
People elected to these positions will collaboratively divide responsibilities according to their preferences, availability, and talents. They will automatically succeed to the subsequent role, for a total of three years of service, after which they may be nominated to serve one more time in each of these roles.
2026 will be a transition year. The newly-elected President and President-Elect will serve together collaboratively, and the Vice President will complete her final year in office. Beginning in 2027, the Vice President’s position will be eliminated.
Please contact Kathy Luker, chair of the Nominating Committee, if you would like to suggest nominees for either of these roles or the other positions to be elected in November: President, President-Elect, Secretary, and Assistant Treasurer.
Note: Saundra Brown’s first term as President and Tricia Hillner’s first term as Secretary will end this year. Both have indicated willingness to be nominated for a second term.
