These Officers, along with the Committee Chairs appointed by the new President will be the core of EWG’s leadership and will ensure a high level of dedication and direction for EWG programs. For our members, serving in an Officer position is an excellent opportunity to enhance and demonstrate critical leadership skills, while strengthening powerful relationships.

– Candidates for the EWG PRESIDENT must have achieved the SES level or equivalent in other Services or by political appointment, whereas the other Officer positions are open to all EWG members. All candidates must have up-to-date membership in EWG.
– If you are placing someone else’s name into consideration, secure her consent and indicate that in your write-up.
– Current year Officers and members of the EWG Board of Directors, if interested, may apply using the same process.
