The CMT (also known as SLSC’s Executive Management Team) is a collective term referred to by SLSNSW to encompass members who hold a managerial decision-making position within an SLSC and lead its members. CMT members may or may not also be members of the SLSC’s Board of Directors (SLSC Board), which is responsible for SLSC governance (See the SLSC Governance section of this Club Guide for more information on the SLSC Board).
Each SLSC has a Constitution that governs the make-up of the CMT and the SLSC’s decision-making processes. Our members trust that each member of their CMT will act in good faith and always in the SLSC’s interest.
The primary role of a CMT is to:
- Ensure that the SLSC’s financial assets are well managed
- Mitigate any risks to the SLSC, its members and its reputation
- Provide leadership and direction for the SLSC.
An effective, well-functioning CMT is the key to a strong and sustainable SLSC. Whatever the size of your SLSC, your SLS members expect to see a management team that works positively together to set strategy and ensure a safe environment—one in which members can effectively and transparently deliver the SLSC’s services to the community. Essentially, they expect good governance, and for CMT members to set the example of positive SLSC culture.
