The Board Annual Business Meeting Planning Committee (BABMPC) is a task-oriented, deadline-driven work group committed to executing specific responsibilities efficiently and collaboratively. Unlike a traditional Board of Trustees (BOT) committee, the BABMPC focuses on action and implementation to meet deadlines for the Annual Business Conference/Meeting (ABC/M), over policy formulation.
To ensure effective decision-making, the BABMPC includes designated roles: the BABMPC Chair chosen by the BOT, BOT Chair, F.W.S. IT Contractor/Webmaster, F.W.S. General Manager/Executive Director, Conference Charter Committee (CCC) Chair, second CCC Member chosen by the CCC, Board Finance Committee (BFC) designated representative, Board Technology Committee (BTC) designated representative, Conference Finance Committee (CFC) designated representative, and Local Planning Committee (LPC) designated representative.
The BABMPC maintains structured practices and procedures, managing meeting participation to uphold productivity. Attendance and observation are determined solely by the BABMPC on a meeting by meeting, case by case, basis. Any non-BABMPC attendees, including additional BOT members, may only attend with prior approval of the BABMPC and may speak if permitted by the BABMPC. By adhering to these principles, the BABMPC fosters transparency, collaboration, and efficiency in fulfilling its mission.
Meeting: 90 minutes on 4th Thursday of the month at 3:30pm PT, 5:30pm CT, 6:30pm ET
