Our people

Our leadership is designed to be clear, representative, and collaborative. Together, these groups guide our network, balance global vision with local needs, and make sure members and clients are always supported.

International Committee

Elected by members from each region, the International Committee (IC) sets direction for the network, represents member interests worldwide, and works closely with the Management Team. Three members of the IC are elected to form the Executive Committee (EC).
