A strong volunteer structure ensures a successful chamber!
It has been said before our volunteers need to be the leaders in the community.
It has been said before our volunteers need to be the leaders in the community.
But in addition to that, they need to commit to your organization if they are to participate on a committee or your board.
At the very least, the following needs to be considered when selecting potential new committee members:
- Intellectually committed;
- Willing to participate (mandatory attendance on key meetings);
- A leader in the community; and
- Financial commitment.
If your volunteers don’t commit to the organization, why would your members? Remember, we are membership organizations.
Your members need to lead!
