  Council Leadership
  Select Committee members serve as the leadership body for the membership of a specific SEMA council or committee. 

Have a business challenge that goes beyond the walls of your shop? See a change in the market that needs to be made? Have an idea, but need some industry muscle to make it happen? Then it may be time for you to volunteer to be a leader and nominate yourself for a Select Committee seat on one of SEMA's councils or committees.

The Select Committee serves as the leadership body for the entire membership of a specific council or committee. These volunteers are in tune with their market and have the drive needed to influence change.

There are currently 10 council and committee groups within SEMA, and each represents a collection of SEMA members that share a common business purpose or market segment. Councils work to identify related business goals, issues and challenges that require a special focus by the association. Here is more information about SEMA's councils and committees and the segments they represent.

Get started now by using the online nomination form here. The form is quick and easy to complete; no printing or faxing required. All nominations must be received by 5:00 p.m. on March 21, 2011.

For more information on SEMA council and committee or the nomination and election process, contact Arlene Wood at arlenew@sema.org.
