YOUR ODN chapter is looking for passionate, thoughtful, and collaborative leaders to join our Board — and we’d love for you to consider nominating yourself.
If you’ve ever thought, “I’d love to get more involved,” this is your invitation.
We know our chapter is strongest when a variety of voices, experiences, and perspectives are represented at the table. Whether you’re a seasoned OD professional or simply someone who cares deeply about our community, there may be a place for you on the team.
Board service is a chance to:
- Help shape the future of our chapter
- Contribute your skills and ideas in meaningful ways
- Build connections with fellow OD professionals
- Grow your own leadership experience
- Give back to the community
And yes — there are perks too:
- Free attendance at chapter programs and events
- Complimentary membership renewal while serving on the board
We work hard, collaborate well, and try not to take ourselves too seriously along the way.

- Have participated in the chapter for about a year (or have previous OD/ODN experience)
