The Endocrine Society is guided by a series of governing documents that establish the work of the society, support how our mission is achieved, and ensure transparency to our members.
The Endocrine Society depends on member leader participation in all its primary missions and at the highest levels of its governance. Member leaders have a fiduciary responsibility to the Society, which includes a duty to promote the overall health of and to minimize the risks to the Society and its stakeholders. Given that member leaders are expected to have various extra-Societal relationships—some of which may directly or indirectly impact Society interests—any actual or potential conflicts/dualities of interest (C/DOI) must be identified and managed as appropriate. In June 2023, the Endocrine Society’s Board of Directors adopted a new Conflict/Duality of Interest Policy for Member Leadership.
