Chapter Officers
The Executive Cabinet consists of elected members to form a collaborative leadership council. This cabinet consists of a five to nine positions, depending on the size of the chapter. There are three Executive Cabinet Models that chapters can choose from: the Fisher, Hoffman, or Salter Models. Each model is named after one of our Founders and is tiered for various chapter sizes. As elected officers, they are all responsible for the membership, operations, and overall well-being of the chapter. Each officer oversees and manages a team to help execute their areas of responsibility. Members of these groups are often referred to as coordinators.
