This should be points of contact that your position should reach out to regardless.
Words of Wisdom
Always be ahead of the other members. You should always be knowledgeable of upcoming projects, processes, agendas, etc. Members look to you for leadership and guidance, and you should be able to answer most, if not all, questions asked. The most important thing about being the SFC Chair is being able to ask questions. You'll probably experience moments in which nobody speaks up, it is your duty to facilitate conversations and involve all members.
This should be about 3-4 paragraphs at least, and should contain information about people you have reached out to, not just offices, initiatives you have furthered, and things you learned in the position that would have been better to know beforehand. Will help to inform the next section and overall planning the following years.
