IAAP Strategic Plan

Diversity Disclosure: The IAAP Board is responsible for setting the strategic direction of IAAP. To ensure a dynamic and inclusive association that is relevant to supporting the administrative profession, and one that can effectively uphold IAAP’s core purpose, it is imperative that diverse volunteers lead the organization. As part of the nominating process, volunteer diversity is to be evaluated across several criteria: professional expertise, knowledge, abilities, and perspectives, as well as ethnicity, race, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic background, age, and other dimensions of diversity. Consideration should also be given to individuals who bring intersectional perspectives, ensuring the board reflects the diverse lived experiences of our community. Our commitment to diversity is complemented by a focus on equity, ensuring all volunteers have the opportunity to contribute and lead.

I acknowledge that I have reviewed, understand, and agree to uphold and support IAAP’s Leadership Matrix, the Position Description, and the Confidentiality Agreement.
I acknowledge that the application process includes a virtual video interview.
