KEY SKILLS & EXPERIENCES
The Board welcomes and thrives on a variety of skills, profiles, perspectives and demographic backgrounds. Given its governance responsibilities and current composition, the Board has identified the following experiences as a priority for the coming years:
- Work experience in an organization that works with racialized and/or Indigenous people and/or people experiencing homelessness (areas of expertise related to the strategic plan).
In addition, attributes such as analytical and synthesis skills, as well as advanced skills in organizational diagnosis and complex problem solving, are highly valued on a board of directors. A strong appetite for administrative tasks and managing deadlines is necessary.
Experience with Santropol Roulant, the non-profit sector, and other boards of directors is an asset, but is not mandatory.
