Question: President not acting efficiently but intimidates others. What to do? Hey. Well here's the situation: I am a senior in high school, and for the second consecutive year, I am treasurer of a certain club (AVID Committee). The people who hold the positions in the club were not voted into that position, they themselves took the title. Since this one girl right out said that she wanted to be president, instead of opting for vice –president, I took the position of treasurer because I am good with money, and for me it was the lesser of the two evils. Then these two guys were both co-vps, and the girls who wanted to be secretary were just that. In the beginning of the club I mentioned to the class the sales that were happening for the fundraiser that we wanted to hold, which was selling root beer floats. For some reason I was buying all the root beer (with no car mind you) and most of the supplies. When we were in the actual class of AVID, our teacher would always tell the class that I would summarize what happened at the meetings and what supplies we needed. I would be the one who would go to every person and ask them if they could sell one day during the week for not only that fundraiser, but the other one as well. At the time I was fulfilling much more than my treasurer duties. I spoke to our teacher about this on more than one occasion, especially before our junior year ended, and she said that we should and would hold an official election, and the people who wanted whatever position would have to write a speech about why they wanted the position and why they would feel better for that position. It’s senior year now and that hasn’t happened. I’ve even spoken to her about that with two friends of mine, Joe and Andrew, and they felt since last year that I was more of a pres than the current one was. And they wanted to impeach Matt, the vp because he didn’t do anything for that position. Even D, the co-prez told me that he thought I was the leader with all the work that I did last year, and I never knew he felt that way. The only problem is, the pres (I’ll call her Ana) has the type of personality that makes people intimidated, so that is why I think no one really is confident in bringing this into the meeting type setting. One of the more messed up things is that Ana and Matt wrote the construction that all clubs need to get in, and Joe had two positions in the club (inventory person and publicity person) and they didn’t include him in that. And they put D as a “representative” instead of co-prez. We never fundraised during the summer, which we should have done, and I’ve had so many ideas that I’ve said but sometimes I feel as if it’s falling on deaf ears. I don’t know, it’s just annoying, and spending my time at the meetings every Friday and barely getting what I feel we need to accomplished bothering me when I feel that there is so much we need to do, but people are so slow or not budging. What should be done?

Answer: Stop doing any jobs that don't belong to you. As treasurer, your job is to keep track of the money. All other jobs fall to the other officers. When you have your next meeting, demand to know why the people responsible for these jobs did not get them done. As long as you keep doing other people's work, they will not be held accountable, because, after all, their jobs are getting done.
