Choose what your chapter looks like!

4/1/09

I sometimes hear members say that their chapter does not have the right members in it: too many of one thing, not enough of another, that their Power Group is too small. And I always suggest the same thing ....

Do something about it!

Members are the result of people invited. And, any member can influence the make-up of their chapter by simply inviting the type of people that they want as members.

So, if you want more members in your Power Team, invite only people that make up your team. If you want more trades people, only invite those types of businesses. If you want more women in your group, only invite women. The choice is yours.

But you have to do it. You have to invite people. Don’t leave it to someone else because they will invite whom they want, not whom you want.

Your chapter may not look the way you want it because you haven’t invited anyone who has become a member. Invite and keep inviting, and you never know, in a few months time your chapter may just look the way you would like it to.
