Leadership Opportunities
At the end of the calendar year, the AGA Albany Chapter, your chapter, chooses its leadership for the coming year and puts out a call for nominations from its membership. Nominations are due by December 31.
Leadership Opportunities – Call for Nominations
The AGA Albany Chapter would like to extend to you an invitation to participate in the governance and activities of our Chapter for the upcoming year.
Participation in AGA activities offers you a great opportunity to enhance your leadership, organizational, and communication skills, while permitting you the chance to work closely with and network with other finance professionals in State, Federal and local government as well as from the private sector.
The health and well-being of our members and leadership team are of paramount importance. Our meetings and events are held being via phone, Zoom, or other remote technology and will remain so until it is safe to meet in person.
Officer and Board Member positions offer an opportunity to participate in the organization at a high level. However, if you don’t feel that you are ready for that high-level commitment, committee positions offer members an opportunity to become involved in a more limited capacity. A brief description of the various AGA Chapter positions is provided below.
If you are a member and would like to become involved in a leadership or committee position, please contact our incoming Chapter President, Kenneth Shulman at kenneth.shulman@gmail.com
