Summary:The members who become president go through a long process whereby they gain knowledge of the Institute of Real Estate Management's (IREM) issues and challenges so they can better serve the organization and the real estate management industry. The path to the presidency starts with those members who graciously volunteer for their local chapters and nationally. This process allows other IREM Members and leaders to evaluate their leadership abilities, judgment and understanding of the Institute. Chapter leadership is the first stepping stone to the presidency. At the regional level, each chapter recommends candidates for regional VP positions, which involve a two-year term. After the nominating committee selects a candidate for secretary/treasurer, the immediate past president meets with the candidate in the candidate's office and tours some of the properties the candidate's firm manages. The nominating committee submits a slate of officers to the governing council for its vote at the IREM fall conference.
