GA22 AGENDA: Tenure on Elected Executive Positions

PREAMBLE: Due to the inability to conduct the 78th International General Assembly in 2020 because of the COVID-19 global pandemic, leaders holding elected positions were held in place under an International Executive Council passed “continuance of governance” resolution, since the International General Assembly Minutes provide no guidance for what to do when elections could not be held. Because of the disruption in the normal election cycle caused by the postponement of the 78th International General Assembly, the following options are presented for consideration and implementation, applicable for the 2022 International General Assembly only:

1. Tenure of the Newly Elected Members (2016) of the International Executive Committee Options:

A. Two-Year Option – If you believe the newly elected members (2016) should only have two more years of tenure eligibility, you should select the number 2 on your keypad.

B. Four-Year Option – If you believe the newly elected members (2016) should have four years of tenure eligibility, you should select the number 4 on your keypad.

2. Tenure of the Newly Elected Members (2018) of the International Executive Council Options:

A. Tenure Completed Option – If you believe the newly elected members (2018) should not have any tenure eligibility remaining, you should select the number 1 on your keypad.

B. Two Additional Years Option – If you believe the newly elected members (2018) should have two more years of tenure eligibility, you should select the number 2 on your keypad.

3. Tenure of the International Director and Assistant Director of Youth and Discipleship Options:

A. Two-Year Option – If you believe the Director and Assistant Director should only have two more years of tenure eligibility, you should select the number 2 on your keypad.
