Roles and Responsibilities of an International Director
 

A member of the Board of Directors is part of the leadership and strategic thinking team guiding the world’s largest volunteer, communication and leadership organization. It is a position of prestige and honor. However, the position also requires time and service, more extensive than  the typical position of a corporate officer of a corporation.
