Thank you for your interest in joining the Association of Change Management Professionals Midwest Chapter (ACMP MW) Board of Directors. Our Mission is to engage, grow, and empower a thriving Midwest community of change professionals, and allies.

We are looking for candidates who can evidence the Chapter Values:

  • Passion: a strong desire for thought change
  • Innovation: look for new and improved ways to perform our work through creativity and by challenging the status quo
  • Inclusivity: welcome others to connect and collaborate for personal and professional growth. It’s how we show up, it’s evident in our commitment to each other and our community
  • Excellence: the benchmark for other associations

ACMP MW Board Member expectations are no different than those outlined by ACMP Global. ACMP MW Board Member are expected to:

  • Show up: Board Members are expected to meet their commitments as outlined in the role description. This may mean re-arranging business or personal appointments.
  • Care: As ACMP MW is a non-profit with a distinctive Vision and Mission, caring about why we exist and evidencing that in your relationships with others is essential.
  • Team Player: In a volunteer dependent organization, a Board Member is expected to achieve a high standard in collaborating with and supporting fellow Board Members and ACMP MW volunteers.
  • Follow Through: ACMP MW is a relatively young organization and does not have copious resources at its disposal. The willingness and availability of Board Members to carry out and complete tangible pieces of work is critical, and some of this may be more operational than strategic in nature. We follow through on initiatives agreed by the Board.
  • Positive Attitude: ACMP MW needs Board Members who can set a tone of positivity and ‘can do’ attitude, who are courteous, generous, and warm to our volunteers and staff.
  • Do the Right Thing: The willingness to make a fundamental call on right and wrong, even if this conflicts with other interests.

  • Not be in a conflict-of-interest position with respect to ACMP Global and the Chapter.

  • Meet face-to-face four (4) or more times per year, typically for 5 hours per meeting. These meetings are set on the calendar a minimum of 6 months in advance. ACMP Midwest will cover travel expenses associated with in person meetings.
