PGI Committee System Guidlines

1. Most PGI work should be done in committee meetings, well before regular PGI Board of Directors meetings.
2. Board meetings should primarily consist of recommendations submitted by the committees.
3. Committee Chairs are expected to submit written report to PGI president at least 2 weeks prior to regular Board meetings.
4. Every committee should have a clearly-defined, and written, purpose and function.
5. Committee purpose, function, and membership list should be maintained on PGI web-site.
