BISHOPS EXECUTIVE SECRETARIES TOGETHER

hi

Governance: Leadership and Business

B+E+S+T has leadership in many forms. In addition to elected positions, we also have leadership positions which are appointed by the Board. The Board determines the need of committees and then sets guidelines, goals and terms. If you are interested in serving in a leadership role, please let a board member know. They will be glad to discuss these opportunities with you.
