The TM Forum Board of Directors is comprised of senior executives from a global cross section of the industry, including leading communications service providers, solution suppliers, and systems integrators. The Board sets the pace and direction for the organization and thus, indirectly, the industry as a whole. One of the Board of Directors’ key responsibilities is determining how the TM Forum will serve the industry by choosing the areas of focus for the organization and setting and guiding strategic initiatives.
