Business Meeting and Elections June 18, 2021

GLSA will hold its annual business meeting with Board Elections, on June 18, 2021.  As part of the business meeting,  we will be having elections to fill three (3) open seats on the Board of Directors.

Those individuals elected to the Board of Directors will be for a three (3) year term. All voting members are eligible to be nominated. All voting members may nominate another voting member or may nominate themselves.

The Nominating Committee will select the best nominees to run for election to the Board. The Nominating Committee will base its decision on the following:

  • A desire to serve on the Board
  • Some background and familiarity with the legal plan industry
  • Regular-Voting Membership in GLSA.

This is a working board and the time spent is productive in advancing the mission of the organization.

To submit your name or a colleague’s name for consideration as a candidate, send an e-mail or letter.

  • Tell us about yourself or your suggested candidate

Please let the Nominating Committee know a little about yourself.  You may also support the nomination with recommendations from other members who know you or your candidate.  

Don’t forget to include basic contact information including e-mail addresses.

  • Highlight relevant background and experience  

A proven record of volunteer work and leadership in relevant organizations and strong practical experience in the legal plan industry will be a plus.

  • Distinguish yourself or your candidate 

The election process is an opportunity to encourage participation in GLSA leadership by a wide diversity of members.  If electing you or your candidate will make GLSA more inclusive, or provide unusual but useful experience or perspective, please indicate such facts in the nomination.


All nominations must be submitted to the committee so that they are received on or before May 7, 2021.   Nominations must be made by submitting by the name of the nominee, a short biographical statement for the nominee and why the nominee should ultimately be elected to the Board of Directors.
All nominations should be sent via email to the GLSA Executive Director at information@glsaonline.org.  Nominations received after May 7, 2021 might not be considered by the Committee. Following the nomination of candidates, the Nominating Committee will convene to consider all nominations and will then announce the candidates for this year’s election.
If you have any questions or concerns about this process, please do not hesitate to contact Executive Director, Annette M. Waggoner  via email to awaggoner@glsaonline.org or 847-907-4670.
