What is expected of a Committee / Board Member?

AGMC Inc. is an incorporated body. Committee members are therefore viewed as directors and accordingly have a legal responsibility to act in the best interests of the organisation.

Our community if blessed with many talented people. We hope to secure the support of a close-knit team who is able to:

  • Give time to the organisation. We ask for a 12 month commitment. This includes attending meetings – currently once every 6 weeks on a Wed night, attending an annual planning meeting, organizing at least 1 event per year and assisting with some of the other events. Attendance can be virtual – e.g. Skype or teleconference.
  • Represent the diverse views of members. (Not just their personal views).
  • Approve short and long-term strategies
  • Manage budgets and expenditure
  • Source funding
  • Build the membership base
  • Engage with the constituent community and the wider community
  • Determine, review and maintain the vision, purpose and values of the organisation

This is not an exhaustive list but it seeks to highlight that above all a director must be able to commit the time needed to fulfil the functions of office. Individuals within the Committee may have specific duties as a result of their portfolio. For example, the Secretary will draft agendas and minutes, the Treasurer will present a financial summary at each meeting outlining income and expenditure.
