Dear SWE-San Diego Members,
It is time to identify and nominate potential candidates for the FY27 (July 1, 2026 - June 30, 2027) SWE-San Diego (SWE-SD) Executive Council. The SWE-SD Nominating Committee needs your help with identifying at least one qualified candidate for each of the five Executive Council (EC) positions:
President
Vice President
Treasurer
Recording Secretary
Corresponding Secretary
For more information about the roles and responsibilities, check out our role descriptions.
While the Nominating Committee is responsible for ensuring that qualified candidates are placed on the ballot, identifying SWE's future leaders is everyone's responsibility.
It is the responsibility of all of us to see that members are considered not only to develop and grow our leaders, but to grow our section and the Society's mission. We look forward to receiving your recommendations.
Nominations are due by March 27, 2026.
ELIGIBILITY: To take office, candidates must be voting members of the Society.
CHARACTERISTICS: The key leadership characteristics we look for are a willingness to develop and grow as a leader, exercise strategic planning and team building skills, take initiative to move plans forward, demonstrate results, and promote an inclusive organization.
TO NOMINATE: Fill out this form by March 27, 2026. Self-nominations will be accepted.
CONSENT: Candidate consent is required before placing on the ballot.
Thank you for helping us identify candidates who can provide leadership excellence for SWE-San Diego in the coming fiscal year!
Sincerely,
FY26 SWE-San Diego Nominating Committee Chair
