Leadership Pledge Committee Members

I have been appointed to serve on the NAHRO 2023-2025 leadership team. I understand that in accepting this responsibility, I must serve in a position of special trust and have a fiduciary duty at all times to act in the best interests of NAHRO, serving its interests diligently and faithfully.

In particular, I pledge that I will:

• Exercise reasonable diligence to be well informed about the affairs of the Association and the matters I am asked to decide and that I will act reasonably and with due care when conducting the Association’s business.

• Hold in strict confidence all information (in whatever form and by whatever means received) that is determined by the Board of Governors, or the Association’s staff or legal counsel to be proprietary or confidential; not divulge such information to any outside party or organization unless such disclosure has been specifically authorized; and not make any improper use of any information, whether or not proprietary/confidential, received by virtue of my position.

• Support and promote the mission of the Association and, in all instances where feasible to do so, support and promote the use of the Association’s educational and other products and services.

• Avoid conflicts of interest and the appearance thereof, subordinating my own personal interests and those of other persons, businesses and organizations with whom I am involved or affiliated to the best interests of the Association.

• Abide by the NAHRO Code of Professional Conduct in letter and spirit.

I pledge faithfully to abide by the above-stated principles and understand that, if the Board of Governors shall determine that I have failed in a material way, to live up to this pledge I may be asked to vacate my position.
