  • Assisting the CEO in identifying and recruiting other board members
  • Partnering with the CEO and other board members to ensure that board resolutions are carried out
  • Serving on committees or task forces and taking on special assignments
  • Representing the AMPS organization to the community; acting as an ambassador for the organization
  • Ensuring the organization’s commitment to a diverse board and staff.
