SIGDOC is searching for volunteer-leaders to run for election in 2019.

ABOUT SIGDOC
The ACM Special Interest Group for Design of Communication is a vibrant international professional organization providing a forum for researchers and practitioners of the design of communication, including user experience design, information architecture, information design, and user assistance as well as technology that supports and enhances communication. We host an international annual conference that results in a peer-reviewed proceedings. We also publish Communication Design Quarterly, edited by Derek G. Ross. Both are housed in the ACM’s digital library.

Why you should consider a leadership role in SIGDOC
Organizations are best when run by active and committed members: it’s democracy in action. Besides, it ticks the boxes for international leadership on all your promotion documents. Notice I left “tenure” out of “tenure and promotion” documents. We are seeking recently (and not so recently) tenured folks because we want junior scholars to join the tenured as expeditiously as possible. Contact the nominating chair directly if you have a compelling reason to consider yourself an exception to this policy.

ELECTED POSITIONS
