Meet the Leaders of AIB

As AIB’s main governing body, the Executive Board is responsible for setting the overall direction of our association and developing specific policies to achieve that vision. Each member is appointed to the board through a rigorous nomination and election process, as detailed in our organization’s bylaws.
