Cornelia for Southern Region Phylacter

Directions Website

Cornelia for Southern Region Phylacter I am a candidate for the position of Phylacter for the "Mighty" Southern Region of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated. Greetings "Mighty" Southern Region.

I am seeking your support as I place my name in candidacy for the position of Southern Regional Phylacter. I seek this position as the rule of law is important to how we function as an organization. I have a passion for operating in and understanding good governance. Following our rules and amending them when they become outdated is the appropriate action for our organization and allows us to stay current and move forward with the changing times. I want to ensure that we continue the path forward for excellence in governance by keeping our governing documents current and available to our members. I want to demonstrate the importance, necessity, and gravity of parliamentary procedure and be available to assist chapter phylacters along their journey with parliamentary procedure. I believe that I can be impactful in the role of Phylacter as I bring with me six years of experience as Phylacter at the chapter level. I have served on the Regional Bylaws Committee since 2018 and served on the International Bylaws Committee and Constitution & Bylaws Revisions Committee from 2021 - 2022. Following that service, I served on the Transition & Oversight committee from 2022 -2024 and on the International Grievance Committee from post Boule 2022 to present. Each of these committees responsibilities are driven by the governance of our organization. Not only have I served in a governance capacity, I have continued honing my leadership skills in the realm of Zeta Phi Beta. I achieved ZOL certification in 2022 and completed certification in the ZOL President's Institute in 2023. Coupled with those leadership certifications and the leadership training and experience I have received throughout my professional career, I went on to the position of 2nd Anti-Basileus where I oversee the numerous programs amplifying the Extraordinary Power of S.H.E. I believe that the time is now and that I am primed and ready to serve the "Mighty" Southern Region.

Greetings Sorors of the Mighty Southern Region!

Y'all have truly blessed me beyond measure! Thank you for putting your Boots on the Ground in Dallas and electing me as your Regional Parliamentarian.

It is an absolute honor to serve the MIGHTY Southern Region. I am humbled by your confidence in me and ready to saddle up for this journey ahead. From the bayous of Legendary Louisiana to the plains of Wondrous West Texas, from the piney woods of
Exceptional East Texas to every corner of our magnificent region, our Mighty Southern Region spans far and wide, but our sisterhood keeps us connected.

Thank you for your trust, your support, and for showing me what it truly means to be part of something bigger than myself. I'm fixing to make you proud, and together we'll "Empower Extraordinary Governance!"

With sisterly love and endless gratitude,

Cornelia Hicks
Regional Parliamentarian-Elect
Mighty Southern Region

Why do we use Robert's Rules of Order?

We use Robert's Rules of Order because they provide a structured, fair, and efficient framework for conducting meetings and making decisions as a group.

Robert's Rules serve several essential purposes:
1. They ensure every member has an equal voice and opportunity to participate

2. They provide clear procedures for introducing, discussing, and voting on motions

3. They protect both the majority's right to decide and the minority's right to be heard

4. They maintain order during discussions, preventing chaos and confusion

5. They create transparency in decision-making processes

6. They establish a consistent framework that members can rely on

7. They help meetings stay focused and productive

8. They provide objective methods for resolving conflicts or disagreements

For organizations like Zeta Phi Beta, Robert's Rules help uphold principles of fairness and sisterhood by ensuring all Sorors can participate meaningfully in the governance process, regardless of their position or seniority within the organization.

About Me: Embracing Leadership and Excellence through Zeta Education

My campaign is anchored in the belief that when we empower our governance, we empower our sisterhood. This belief inspires my commitment to fostering a culture where every Soror feels fluent and confident in using parliamentary procedure. With certifications in Zeta Organizational Leadership, Presidents Institute and as a member of the National Association of Parliamentarians (NAP), Texas State Association of Parliamentarians (TSAP) Crossroads Unit, and Electronic Association of Parliamentarians, I am dedicated to continuous learning and leadership. My participation in the TSAP Leadership Symposium and as a ParliPrep2025 student further underscores my commitment to this cause.
