Our Members Are Our Leaders
GEAPS members literally run the organization. In fact, GEAPS could not exist without their willingness to plan, develop, coordinate and execute our programs and services. Because members are grain-industry professionals, they keep the organization focused on what’s important—the issues, concerns and challenges GEAPS members face every day in their work.
From local chapters to the International committee and board levels, GEAPS provides an education, experience and growth opportunity in leadership and professionalism that cannot be obtained any other way. This network of project efforts, standing committees, special events and programs could be your chance to shine and be recognized for your talents. It’s the individuals who plan, develop, coordinate and execute those programs and services who really fuel the organization.
