Expectations

In choosing to serve in the highest tier of leadership in our region, the expectations placed on officers are high and carry a lot of weight within the region. There are several things that the office and the members of Lake Ontario Region expect from the Regional Board members.

All Elected Officers on the Regional Executive Board must:

• Be part of a team, which includes all other regional board members and staff, which means publicly supporting group decisions and furthering the collective mission of the region.
• Act as a role model at all regional and chapter events and in everyday life.
• Follow all policies of BBYO and help to ensure that other members of the organization do so as well.
• Show respect to all BBYO members, staff, advisors and guests at all time.
• Uphold the Cardinal Principles/Menorah Pledges and adhere to the BBYO Code of Conduct.
• Present themselves responsibly and appropriately on all social media.
• Meet deadlines, be on time for meetings and work well with others.
• Provide chapter counterparts with training, resources and aid throughout the year.
• Oversee the work of any related Regional Chairs and Committees.
• Communicate regularly with the corresponding International Board counterpart.
• Attend and actively participate in all regional meetings, events and conventions and make regular visits to chapter meetings and events.
• Attend International Convention as a representative of the region, February 11-15, 2021 in Philadelphia (scholarships are available), and participate in International Elections as a voting delegate if eligible.
