2. BYLAWS
PRMIA's original bylaws were written when our association was founded 10 years ago. The Board agrees that it would be in the association's best interest if we implement some changes to our bylaws at this time. The proposed changes are summarized as follows:
Separation of powers between the Board and the executive management;
Increase accountability of the Board;
Update the committee structure to empower Regional Directors and other senior non-Board members;
To correct minor typographic errors.
These proposals have been reviewed and approved by PRMIA's Board of Directors, chaired by Carol Alexander; the Operational Governance Committee, chaired by Kevin Stemp; and the Ethics Committee Chair, co-founder of PRMIA and co-author of the present bylaws, David Koenig.
Changes to our bylaws must also be approved by a majority vote of our members. Therefore, it is very important that you review the proposed changes and register your vote on www.prmia.org/election2011.
Please note that only members registered with PRMIA as of 19th September, 2011, are eligible to vote.
