Leadership

GEBG Leadership Structure

The GEBG is lead by a Board of Directors elected to provide mission-based leadership and strategic governance. The Board is responsible for the supervision, control and direction of the GEBG. While day-to- day operations are led by the Executive Director (ED) and staff, the vision laid out by the Board of Directors is executed by formal committees and less formal working groups. Additionally, Regional Groups offer member schools the opportunity to engage with other member schools and the work of the GEBG according to location.

Committees

GEBG Committees are chaired by a board member and are formed according to the organization’s bylaws. Committee members communicate on an ongoing basis via email and in virtual meetings to discuss and conduct the work of the committee. The standing committees include:

• Executive Committee
• Board Development Committee
• Annual Conference Committee
• Strategic Planning Committee
• Endorsement Committee

Subcommittees

In some cases, committees have subcommittees that are formed to address a specific need for the committee. Currently, the only committee with subcommittees is the Annual Conference Committee. The subcommittees in this group include:

• Presenters subcommittee
• Exhibitors subcommittee
• Speakers subcommittee

Working Groups

Working groups are formed by the Board of Directors and are chaired by a board member to address a specific task or need of the organization. These groups conduct research, carry out specific projects identified by committees or the Board of Directors. Current working groups include:

• Curriculum and Collaboration Working Group
  • Middle School Sub Working Group
  • Lower School Sub Working Group
• GEBG Database Working Group (formerly the Critical Incident Database)
• Assessments Working Group

Regional Groups

Regional groups provide opportunities for member schools to meet outside of the annual conference to discuss, share and collaborate. Regional Groups ideally host one regional meeting (physically) and may offer other virtual meeting opportunities. Regional groups may wish to share resources, offer a professional development opportunities, or student collaborative projects.
