Operational Boards Membership

Volunteer boards are the backbone of many associations, ensuring strong governance and effective leadership. At NZSAE, we’re here to provide your board with the tools, resources, and connections needed to drive success and support your kaupapa.

We understand the unique challenges faced by volunteer-led associations in Aotearoa, and we’re committed to offering guidance that helps you navigate these complexities with confidence. Through tailored advice, practical resources, and opportunities to connect with others, we’ll support your board in delivering real impact for your members and community.


Our Strongest Value Propositions Are:

Connecting You To
The Right People

Connecting with the right people is crucial for the success of any association. We offer you access to a robust network of experienced professionals and peers across New Zealand. Through our events, forums, and networking opportunities, you’ll build meaningful relationships with others who can provide support, share knowledge, and collaborate on initiatives that matter to your association.

This category is designed for membership organisations that do not employ paid officers. A maximum of three committee members from these organisations can become members of NZSAE. While they are not eligible to vote in NZSAE elections, they are fully eligible to participate in and contribute to NZSAE committees.

Through their involvement, these volunteer board members can play a vital role in shaping the direction and initiatives of the association, ensuring that the voices and perspectives of volunteer-led organisations are represented and considered in NZSAE's activities.
