The NWFA is accepting nominations for its board of directors until Nov. 15. NWFA members can nominate a peer or themselves by submitting this nomination form.
The NWFA has created new guidelines to balance its board of directors, considering a number of factors including member types (manufacturer, distributor or contractor, etc.), geographic representation, product offering types (flooring, finishes, tools, inspection services, etc.), NWFA Committee experience, and others.
From the NWFA's website, here is the board member selection process: "In January 2013, the Nominating Committee will select a slate of nominees to be presented to the Board of Directors. At that time, candidates included on the slate will be contacted. The slate of nominees will then be delivered to the NWFA's Board Secretary, who will present the list to the Board of Directors for approval, and then to the full membership 30 days prior to the elections. The elections will take place at the NWFA Wood Flooring Expo in Dallas in April. All directors assume their role immediately following the elections at the Expo."
