The SSSC is striving to increase the diversity of the boards of its subsidiary organizations. We hope to expand our perspective and breadth of experience by attracting leaders from a broad array of backgrounds. To that end, we are seeking interested and talented community members to populate our for profit and nonprofit boards.
About the SSSC
The SSSC is the sole member of the nonprofit subsidiary organizations (3HO, 3HO Europe, LYF, KRI, Sikhnet, SDI and SDEI). SSSC is also the shareholder of KIIT, our for profit subsidiaries. The SSSC is responsible for appointing board members to these subsidiary boards.
The subsidiary organizations’ Boards of Directors serve as the steward of their respective organization. Each board is responsible for setting the strategic direction, establishing the mission and vision, and developing the goals of the organization. Board members are given detailed training about the role of the boards on which they serve and their duties and responsibilities as board members. In general, the boards’ responsibilities include:
Setting goals.
Appointing and supporting corporate officers.
Ensuring effective planning.
Monitoring and strengthening programs and services.
Ensuring adequate financial resources.
Protecting assets and providing proper financial oversight.
Building a competent board.
Ensuring legal and ethical integrity.
Enhancing the organization’s public standing.
The SSSC and its constituent organizations, listed below, would therefore like to extend an invitation to the Global Sangat to be kept informed and apply for board member positions as they open up.
