NOMINATING COMMITTEE

After reviewing the membership for commitment, interest (including meeting attendance and committee participation), and leadership skills; the Nominating Committee annually nominates the candidates for KALM offices. According to the By-Laws, the four elected officers are: Co-Chair Labor, Co-Chair Management, Vice Co-Chair Labor, and Vice Co-Chair Management. As part of the nominating process, the Committee obtains the agreement from each candidate that they will serve if elected. To assure a balanced approach, the Nominating Committee is composed of one labor, one management, and one neutral member. It is important that they have a good understanding of the KALM's goals as well as knowledge of individual member's abilities.
