CDS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE UPDATE

June 28, 2005

The Center for Dependable Strengths Executive Committee has recently expanded its membership by one. Patrice Tabor has joined the Committee as an Adjunct Member. As an Adjunct Member, Patrice attends monthly CDS meetings and participates in CDS projects. The only limitation is she does not have an official vote on CDS decisions, but otherwise contributes fully by offering her views, expertise and participation to the same degree as the other Executive Committee members. After a “trial period,” and if both parties agree, Patrice can become a full, voting member of the CDS Executive Committee.

As is required of Adjunct Members, Patrice has completed the DS Instructor training at the University of Washington and is pursuing DS Master Trainer certification. She has a deep commitment and belief in DS. She brings her own unique set of strengths to the Committee, which will be a valuable addition and much appreciated. Welcome, Patrice!

Other DS practitioners are encouraged to consider becoming Adjunct Members of the CDS Executive Committee. We are working to develop a cadre of DS professionals who have the time, commitment, and vision to lead DS work in the future. For more information, contact the Center for Dependable Strengths.
