Executive Committee

At our Executive Committee meeting on March 23rd:

This committee didn’t have a quorum, however, we did provide feedback on the agendas for this month of April. The DEI training initially scheduled for Thur March 23rd is now scheduled for the April Study session on Thur, April 27th.

Our CEO’s 3-year contract, with Dana, expires this summer. We’ve now selected outside counsel for the renegotiation. We are hopeful of renewing her contract without issue. There is nothing further to report on this topic.

Executive Director Performance Review Committee

At our Executive Director Performance Review Committee meeting on March 23rd:

This committee didn’t have a quorum, however, prior to this General Board meeting, met to approve the release of the CEO Evaluation Survey. For Future years, we may set this process up to run, unless there is a committee member exception with the survey or schedule. Assuming the schedule holds true we will meet this obligation as defined under this contact.

Once the Survey window is closed, results aggregated, etc. the Executive Director Performance Review Committee will meet to review results and next steps in the evaluation process. At this time, we are on track to meet the established timeline.

CMHA:

CMHA has their Spring Conference Monday, June 5th-7th up in Traverse City - Please let Sheila know if you are interested in attending.

Remember its time to contribute to the CMHA’s Political Action Committee. Typically 1 meeting’s stipend is the amount each board member contributes. The website is: https://cmham.org/public-policy/cmh-pac/.

Board Study Session:

Our April Board Study Session is scheduled for next week – Thursday April 27th at 6PM. The topic is DEI Training. Trisha Zizumbo and Bernard Hooper will be the presenters.

This Study Session follows the Executive Committee and Executive Director Performance Review Committee meetings that are scheduled for March 23rd at 5pm and 5:30 pm respectively.
