Welcome to a New Year for the IPA!


Leadership

Eric Baker and Liana Podman would like to announce the vacant Section and Committee Chair positions:

  • Commercial Finance Chair
  • Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Chair
  • Immigration Chair
  • Chicago Co-Chair
  • In-House Co-Chair
  • West Suburban Co-Chair

The current Chairs and Committee members are listed on the Leadership page of the IPA website. The IPA welcomes new and returning volunteers and we encourage you to seek a role as Co-chair or Committee member as well!

Eric and Liana hosted a one-hour virtual Chair Training session for the Board and Chairs,  brief overview of the responsibilities of Committee and Section Chairs/Co-Chairs, as well a brief discussion about Robert's Rules of Order and the structure of board meetings, agendas and much more! They will host a second virtual session and will be coordinating the in-person Board & Chair Retreat in Antioch, IL on May 18. 

Although election of the Board and Officers has taken place on April 10, the IPA has a vacancy for a position of Director as well. To be eligible to fill the vacancy, the candidate must have been a Regular member of the IPA for the past year.
 
If you are interested in volunteering for a leadership role as Chair of a Section or Committee, would like more information about participating on a Committee, or would like to be considered to fill the vacant Board position, please contact IPA President Samantha Misch.
