Boston Bar Association Invites Suggestions
for Committee and Section Leaders
The Boston Bar Association (BBA) is beginning
the process of identifying our leadership teams for next year.
The first round of appointments will be Sections co-chairs which
are made by the president-elect. The next appointments will
be for Committees leaders, made by the Section chairs. Staff
is responsible for providing leadership with a broad list of
diverse candidates. If there are people whom you would like
to suggest, please submit the names to Jennifer Cedor jcedor@bostonbar.org
by March 1, 2010 for full consideration. Sections and Committees
can be found at www.bostonbar.org.
Information about the person’s background and practice
area would be helpful to include with your recommendations.
Note that there are many factors that are considered
for appointments so the BBA cannot guarantee spots for all of
the leaders you suggest. However, there are many leadership
appointments that are made throughout the year and this will
not be the only opportunity.
For more information on this process please
contact me via jcedor@bostonbar.org
