Board of Directors

The Board of Directors consists of elected members of The Society. Meeting at least once annually, it is entrusted with the corporate governance and overall management of the ISBT. Its general and financial responsibilities are detailed in The Statutes. These include management of all matters relating to the ISBT Annual General Meeting (AGM) of members, as well as other meetings vital to the Board’s decision making and activities. The Board oversights the use of funds in accordance with The Statutes. All permanent and ad hoc ISBT committees and working parties are appointed by the Board. The Board determines when and where international and regional conferences are to be held and has vital input to their programs. Under the Board’s auspices, additional educational forums may be convened. The ISBT Board delegates specific management and administrative functions to the Executive Committee, who are all members of the Board. This group in turn, works to ensure that The Society acts in accordance with Board decisions and with resolutions of the AGM.

The ISBT Board of Directors is composed of the members of the Executive Committee, together with nine Regional Directors.
