SIOP Congratulates Drs. Roni Reiter-Palmon and Rodney L. Lowman

I was delighted to have been elected to one of two positions representing the Society of Industrial-Organizational Psychology (SIOP) on the Council of Representatives of the American Psychological Association (APA).

The election included six finalists from a larger field of nominees. The two candidates with the highest votes received were elected to represent SIOP in APA’s Council of Representatives, the governing body of the APA. I want to thank all those who supported me and who encouraged me to run in this election.

More information from siop.org:

“SIOP is pleased to announce that Roni Reiter-Palmon, University of Nebraska at Omaha, and Rodney Lowman, Lowman & Richardson/Consulting Psychologists, have been elected to serve as APA Council Representatives for Division 14 for the term January 2024 to December 2026. Lowman served as an APA Council Representative from 2013-2015 and Reiter-Palmon will be serving in this role for the first time.”

Per the APA website, “…the Council of Representatives is the legislative body of APA and has full power and authority over the affairs and funds of the association within the limitations set by the certificate of incorporation and the bylaws, including the power to review, upon its own initiative, the actions of any board, committee, division, or affiliated organization. The council is composed of representatives of divisions; representatives of state, provincial, and territorial psychological associations (SPTAs); and the members of the Board of Directors.”
