Dear Fellow High Performance Construction Professionals,
Your industry trade association needs you!
On behalf of NCBPA’s Board of Directors, five staff and 200-plus member companies, we are excited to open applications to join our Board of Directors for 2019. Leadership positions on the Executive Committee of two-year terms are available as well as General positions with one-year terms. Applications are due December 14th.
More than ever, North Carolina’s building performance industry needs to come together with a strong voice, a clear plan for success and robust initiatives that improve our companies, our workforce and our market. NCBPA is leading efforts to improve the market value of our work, protect and promote key policies and regulations, improve our workforce and educate consumers. Those are the four items found in our Strategic Plan that the Board developed in January of 2017 and stands by today. NCBPA has made a wealth of progress on these items, funded by member companies, but on behalf of and to the benefit of all industry companies.
Are you a leader in our industry? Do you want to become one? Are you looking to volunteer for an organization moving our industry forward?
Joining NCBPA’s Board is an act of service in an industry that improves the environment, helps people live better lives and employs more than 50,000 workers across the state. In 2019, NCBPA is positioned to have the strongest legislative session of our five-year existence and will be rolling out workforce development resources created by the association that no other state has. This is just a small sample of the work ahead that needs your support.
If you are a leader in our industry or want to become one, please submit your application to join the Board. Prior Board of Directors experience is not necessary but is welcomed. For 2019, our Board of Directors is seeking a variety of professionals to guide the association’s work to greater industry success. The types of industry professionals we’re seeking include, but are not limited to:
- Architects and designers of high performance and “green” residential and commercial buildings.
- Public and industrial building energy efficiency consultants and contractors.
- Commercial general contractors and project developers.
- Realtors, lenders or appraisers interested in improving the market value of high performance buildings, products and services.
- Renewable energy and energy storage contractors and service providers.
- Policy, regulatory and legislative advocates and lobbyists.
- Pros with Board leadership experience in forming effective partnerships and collaborations.
Board Members are responsible for setting the strategic direction of the association and ensuring that the association’s staff and member services are meeting and exceeding the wants and needs of our members. Without OUR leadership, the association would not exist.
Interested? Great! We need you!
Interviews will be conducted via phone and in-person meetings in December and January. An onboarding meeting will be held in early January and our annual strategic planning meeting will be held in February.
Again, on behalf of NCBPA’s Board of Directors, staff and member companies, we encourage you to submit your application and play a role in the growth of our critically important industry. If you have any questions about what it’s like to be a Board Member, please don’t hesitate to contact us or other Board Members.
Sincerely,
Chris Senior, Chairman
Pam Fasse, Vice-Chair
