Program Goal

The goal for the leadership development program is for GAOR, through the Executive Committee, past presidents, and members, to develop and implement a systematic approach for the identification, placement, and training of future GAOR leaders.

Leaders are those members who through their involvement in associations or other organizations are perceived to possess the skills, aptitude, interests, and motivation to become a committee chair, and/or a GAOR elected officer.
The program is designed to further develop a person’s leadership skills in a structured program that offers training and critical evaluation.

Note: It cannot be overemphasized that participation in this program is for self-improvement and does not in any manner project or guarantee that a participant will receive preferential treatment by the Nominating Committee should the participant decide to pursue elected office.

Participation details

Any REALTOR® member may request to participate in the program and any member may be requested to apply to participate by a member of the Leadership Development Committee member.

The program will be limited to twelve (12) new participants each year.

Each candidate will complete an application form to establish their past level of participation and involvement in associations and other groups.
