Leadership opportunities through the Colorado Cancer Coalition

As you may know the Colorado Cancer Coalition has been undergoing many changes and it’s an exciting time to rewrite the future of the Colorado Cancer Coalition. The newly restructured Colorado Cancer Coalition has the unique opportunity to move the cancer plan forward by realigning priorities, working with new partners and leveraging membership strengths to make a difference in the Colorado Cancer Community. 

The new leadership structure of the Colorado Cancer Coalition (CCC) will be a Steering Committee that consists of a Chair, Vice Chair, Past Chair, leadership from each task force, up to 2 at-large representatives; and representatives from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s Comprehensive Cancer program and the CCC’s fiscal sponsor agency. They are excited to announce that Tim Byers MD MPH from the University of Colorado will be serving as the Past Chair in an ex-offico capacity for the next year. 

They are asking for your help in finding new leaders for the Colorado Cancer Coalition, specifically a Chair and Vice Chair. They are looking for individuals who have the following skills: 

  • Strong communication
  • Experience in leading diverse groups
  • Transparent, collaborative leadership style
  • Broad view and understanding of cancer prevention and control: from prevention to end-of-life and survivorship
  • Fiscal management experience
  • Fundraising/resource gathering experience
  • Experience collaborating with partners to reach goals
  • Strategic thinker

A summary document about the roles and responsibilities for the Chair and Vice Chair can be viewed here: CCC Leadership Roles Summary (More detailed roles and responsibilities can be found here: CCC Leadership Roles and Responsibilities.)

They really need your help to reach your networks far and wide to recruit possible candidates for this leadership opportunity with the Colorado Cancer Coalition. A brief leadership application can be found here: CCC 2016 Leadership Application. Nominations will be accepted through January 17, including self nominations. An online election will run from January 19 - January 26.
