WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Organizational Structure
A Leadership Team is elected by the general membership every two years. Key positions include the Chairman, President, Vice-President, and Treasurer. For the continuity of the organization, officers typically rotate upward to fill the next position in sequence.
There is a Board consisting of the elected officers and all current committee chairs. Committees are formed and structured based on decisions made by the elected leadership team.
One member-at-large also sits on the Board.
The functions of Executive Director are filled by a third party service provider, currently, AMC.
Board meetings are held monthly and are open to the Membership to attend, but not vote.
Individual Member's Role
Individual Members are encouraged to participate at all levels of the Organization. Membership is divided into three classifications.
Advisors – are members who may or may not be running businesses, but who are willing to serve in broad categories supporting the various aspects of what Silver Fox Advisors do.
Associates – are members who own and operate specific service based businesses intended to augment the expertise provided by the Advisors. Associate members represent only one service area each. We will not admit competing service providers as Associates.
Emeritus – are members who have long standing service to the organization and have been designated a such by the Board.
Members may serve in leadership roles for the Organization regardless of membership class.
