If you're looking to make a meaningful impact beyond your business and help shape the future of your market segment, now is the time to step forward. The deadline to apply for a SEMA council or network select committee is Friday, April 17.
SEMA council and network select committee volunteers play a vital role in advancing the association's mission and strengthening the automotive aftermarket. Members who serve bring first-hand industry insight and expertise that help SEMA staff develop programs, resources and opportunities that support career development and business growth across the association's nine specialized communities.
Serving on a select committee requires a commitment of approximately five to ten hours per month, while offering valuable opportunities for professional growth and industry engagement, including:
- Hands-on leadership experience within your aftermarket niche
- The opportunity to strengthen your market segment by helping develop impactful programs, events and member resources
- A platform to raise awareness about issues that matter most to your business
- Meaningful industry relationships and lasting friendships
- Insight into emerging trends and opportunities shaping the aftermarket
Applicants must be employed by a SEMA member company and willing to serve a two-year term. While planning skills and aftermarket experience are helpful, the most important qualification is a passion for supporting and advancing the industry.
Don't miss this opportunity to give back, grow your leadership skills, and help guide the future of your community.
