DBAA has always been and will remain a member governed organization, with a supermajority of board seats reserved for individuals affiliated with our member organizations. Our new bylaws allow greater flexibility within this mandate to prioritize diversity and equity and recruit board members who can best support the needs of DBAA. Revised bylaws were approved by our members in December 2022. Key changes include: The elimination of tiered membership categories (Leadership Council, Program Council, and Affiliates Members). As of July 1, 2023, there is a single category of membership with sliding-scale membership fees based on organizational budget size; Where previously board seats accrued to member organizations, over the next three years DBAA is transitioning to an all-elected board for which staff members from all member organizations are eligible to serve; Size of the board was changed from 21 to 11 seats to conform with norms for organizations of our size and lessen the administrative burden of managing a large board; Terms of service are 3 years, with a maximum of 3 consecutive terms; Board members who leave their member organization during their term are eligible to remain on the board until their term ends; Up to 30% of individual board members may be unaffiliated with a DBAA organization, allowing us to recruit board members with specific expertise (legal, PR, etc.) or important community perspectives, and fulfill other strategic needs; The creation of a Board Development Committee responsible for setting goals for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and Access at the board level, overseeing annual nominations and the election of new board members, and evaluating the overall performance of the board.
