The association’s charter determines our organisational structure. Our Steering Committee bears the primary responsibility for our strategic direction. It is led by its President, who is elected by the general assembly of members. The Steering Committee also appoints the General Manager.
The Steering Committee is made up of the chairpersons of the product and working groups and of up to five additional members who are subsequently selected by the Committee. The General Manager implements the decisions of the Steering Committee and members, and is also responsible for day-to-day management.
