Interested in serving on one of the U.S. Grains Council’s (USGC’s) Advisory Teams (A-Teams)? Apply by April 30, 2022, to take part in an experience that will enhance your leadership skills in our increasingly global industry.
“Being an A-Team member is a great way to become more knowledgeable about specific aspects of the Council’s export market development work and bring your organization’s perspective and ideas to the Council’s program planning process,” said USGC Chairman Chad Willis.
The Council has seven A-Teams, each focused on a specific area of the Council’s global programming. Members share their insight on teams focused on Asia; ethanol; innovation and sustainability; Middle East, Africa and South Asia; trade policy; value-added products and the Western Hemisphere.
A-Team appointments for 2022-2024 will be announced before the USGC Board of Delegates meeting scheduled to take place in Sacramento, California, from July 25 to 27, with terms beginning Aug. 2, 2022.
If you have questions regarding serving on an A-team or the application process, please contact Amelia Iliohan, USGC manager of industry relations, at ameliai@grains.org or (202) 215-8427.
