2026-2027 ILEA International Leadership Nomination Application

The ILEA Nominations Committee is seeking candidates to serve on the International Board of Governors or as Regional Vice President.

Please complete and submit this form no later than March 25, 2026.

As part of this process, you will need to submit the following as attachments to this completed form: A high-resolution headshot in .jpg, .tif, or .png format and a resume or CV outlining your industry experience. Please Note: The headshot you provide will be included in any materials produced or sent to the membership if you are nominated.

For any questions or comments, contact info@ileahub.com and your email will be addressed by the Nominations Committee Chair.

The International Live Events Association strongly recommends that all nominees consult with their supervisors, business partners, etc., and discuss the time commitment required for service to the association, and seek their support.

The time commitment to serve on the Board and/or as an Officer varies depending on the activities of the association and the Board but averages 10-15 hours per month. Some examples of monthly activities include Board meetings, chairing an international committee and leading committee meetings, working on initiatives from assigned task forces, social sharing of ILEA events/programs, and responding to email actions between official meetings.

The time commitment to serve as a Regional Vice President (RVP) varies depending on the needs of their respective region but averages 5-10 hours per month. Some examples of monthly activities include providing support to the local chapters and helping remove barriers to success, liaison between local and international leadership, and foster connections and opportunities for members. RVPs are asked to attend at least one board meeting for each assigned chapter (in-person or virtually), hold a monthly chapter president call for their region, and attend a monthly RVP call. 

I understand the time requirements needed to carry out the duties as an RVP, Board member and/or Officer of ILEA International. I feel that I am able to carry out both the duties of my current employment and the duties of an ILEA Leader. I also understand that I may receive a follow-up call from the ILEA Nominations Committee for clarification of my written answers in this application.

Members of the ILEA Board of Governors and Regional Vice Presidents are responsible for their own travel expenses. * Budget allotment and travel reimbursement policy is subject to periodic review.
