2008 OAUG Board of Directors Call for Candidates

The Oracle Applications Users Group (OAUG) announces its call for candidates for the 2008 Board of Directors. The deadline for inclusion on the ballot is 11:59 p.m. EDT, Friday, September 21, 2007.

Any employee of an OAUG User or Associate member company or any OAUG Individual Associate member in good standing may run for the Board. Additional information regarding the call for candidates (PDF file), including Board of Director position qualifications, submission process and election process, is available on the OAUG Web site.

The OAUG is a global organization comprised of users and partners of the growing family of Oracle Applications. If you are an individual with strong strategic planning skills, interested in expressing the views of a specific geographical region of the world and/or the needs of a specific Oracle Application product, the OAUG welcomes your interest as a potential 2008 Director candidate.

The OAUG Board strives to have global and broad product representation so that users around the world and from across the family of Oracle Applications have their voice heard by Oracle. As an OAUG Director, your primary responsibilities will be to focus on the strategic needs of the organization, identify new initiatives and work to strengthen the relationships with our sister organizations and with Oracle.

Directors are also required to serve on one of three committees: Finance, Governance and/or the Executive Committee. This will take approximately five to eight hours per week. In addition, there will be two face-to-face, two-day meetings, which may occur on a weekend, and monthly Board conference calls to attend. Please be sure you and your employer are prepared to provide this commitment of time.

For more information, please refer to the call for candidates (PDF file), and the OAUG Elections Frequently Asked Questions. To be considered as a candidate, please submit your biography via the online submission form. Thank you in advance for your interest in the 2008 OAUG Board of Directors.
