New Leader Orientations 2021
The EMEA and AP regional teams hosted New Leader Orientation sessions in April and May 2021 to help newly-elected leaders understand the basics of Democrats Abroad and how we work.
The program was designed to give new leaders a basic DA foundation by providing information on:
Our purpose, our organizational structure, and how we conduct business (45 minutes)
Our IT Team and key resources (30 minutes)
Our Comms Team and how we share our messages (20 minutes)
Our other teams and committees that support leaders and Country Committees (40 minutes)
Upcoming and regular regional and global meetings (20 minutes)
