It's AGM night. Four usual suspects nominate each other. A hand shoots up from someone nobody's seen in two years. Another from the member who's complained loudly at every event for the past twelve months. Seven people are declared elected to stilted applause. Six months later, everyone's wondering why everything has gone sideways.

In this episode Kate H and Kate M make the case for ditching nominations from the floor forever — and walk through the eight-step election process that gets the right people in the room. They cover informed candidates, proper voting, returning officers, staggered terms, term limits, and the uncomfortable truth about past presidents who don't know when to let go. Free election checklist and candidate statement template in the show notes.
