Co-leader Responsibilities:

IARPC Collaborations leaders have cyclical and ongoing responsibilities that include:

• Leading the community of practice

• Regularly communicating and working in a collaborative way with fellow co-leads

• Acting as a resource and coordinator for community members’ questions and ideas on community of practice activities

• Planning team activities for coming year

• Reaching out to potential speakers for community meetings and working with co-leads and IARPC Secretariat on meeting agendas and announcements

• Organizing and chairing community of practice meetings

• Supporting reporting on community of practice activities

• Participating in annual team leader workshops

Co-leads can expect to devote between 6 and 10 hours per month on average to their leadership role. We ask applicants to be prepared to commit to serve at least two years as a co-lead. If there are unforeseen circumstances that require team leaders to step down before two years, we request they help find a replacement in discussion with the other co-leads. All those selected to be co-leads will be trained and onboarded.
