This word is made up of three parts: 'Land' (state, in the sense of a federal state), the linking '-es', and 'Vorstand' (executive committee). So it literally refers to the executive committee at the level of a state.
Der Landesvorstand einer Partei legt die politische Strategie für das Bundesland fest.

Although 'Landesvorstand' (state executive committee) consists of several people, the word is used as a collective noun in the singular. The verb in the sentence is therefore also singular.

Der Landesvorstand tagt einmal im Monat.

To express membership, you use 'im Landesvorstand sein/sitzen' (to be/sit on the state executive committee). When someone is elected, you say 'in den Landesvorstand gewählt werden' (to be elected to the state executive committee).
