The Executive Committee is the governing body of the GAI and is formed and operates according to the Memorandum, Articles of Association and Code of Professional Conduct. The Executive Committee sets the vision for the organisation and provides strategic advice to the management team.
The Executive Committee is comprised of member volunteers (except the salaried Chief Executive of the GAI) and appoints a President, Vice President and Treasurer for two-year terms. The composition of the Executive Committee is ratified by the membership each year at the AGM.
Each year at least two seats on the committee become available for member nomination. In situations where there are more nominations than seats available, an online election will take place. GAI full company members (with no monies owing) can vote for their preferred candidates and each valid member will be given one vote.
