Have you considered how serving on the IPMI Board of Directors could expand your leadership experience and professional impact?

IPMI continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of the parking, transportation, and mobility industry, and we are seeking engaged, forward-thinking leaders to help guide that work. Serving on the IPMI Board of Directors offers a meaningful opportunity to contribute to the strategic direction of IPMI, shape initiatives that advance the profession, and represent the diverse perspectives of our membership.

To support this important work and invite new leaders into service, the IPMI Nominating Committee is pleased to announce the annual Call for Nominations for individuals interested in serving on the IPMI Board of Directors.


The Role of the IPMI Board of Directors

The IPMI Board of Directors sets strategic priorities for the organization, provides guidance on industry-specific projects, and offers direction on education, membership, outreach, allied partnerships, research, and the annual IPMI Parking & Mobility Conference & Expo, in addition to other responsibilities. Board members may be tasked to serve as committee or task force liaisons, chairs/co-chairs, or volunteers, and/or other initiatives, partnerships, and projects.
