Leadership
GBIO is governed by a Strategy Team (our board of directors) with two elected Co-Chairs. Leaders from our member organizations are elected to serve three-year terms on the Strategy Team.

The Strategy Team is responsible for setting the direction of GBIO, based on issues raised and ratified by the membership. The Strategy Team authorizes new issue campaigns, reviews the progress of current campaigns, attends to financial and structural aspects of the organization and oversees the hiring of a Lead Organizer.
