NIC Future Leaders Council
Meeting Our Mission Head-On with Innovation
The NIC Future Leaders Council (FLC) was established in 2009 and has come to represent the best and the brightest of the industry, continually attracting emerging leaders who bring fresh perspectives, innovative ideas, and an abundance of energy and drive.
The FLC is comprised of handpicked professionals, nominated by companies in the senior housing and care and finance sectors that have volunteered time and resources to support NIC’s mission. Members of the FLC contribute to the work of NIC committees and task forces, get the chance to develop volunteer leadership skills, and have ample opportunity to form meaningful professional relationships with current NIC leaders while functioning as an extension of the board.
The selection of FLC members is a highly competitive application process. Nominations originate from senior level executives within their respective companies and are focused on candidates with:
- Passion
- Commitment
- Strong leadership potential
- The ability to think creatively and strategically
- 5 – 10 years of relevant work experience
The FLC is a three-year commitment, and members meet as a group quarterly – at a Winter Retreat, the NIC Spring Conference, a Summer Retreat, and the NIC Fall Conference. All meetings and retreats are mandatory.
The FLC works closely with each other, the board, and various committees to directly contribute to NIC’s initiatives.
We believe developing young leaders will help us handle the unique challenges and opportunities of our industry. Harnessing the substantial talent of the FLC helps NIC gear up for the future of senior housing and care.
