  4. Need help recruiting new members?

  5. Recruitment and Retention: How to get new members and make sure they stay • Know, Understand and Sell Your Vision •  Set Some Recruitment Goals  • Get Everyone Involved  • Word-of-mouth is the best and least expensive type of publicity you can utilize. • As a President Acknowledging those members who are doing a great job is important. • Have a sense of Community 

  6. Is one of your biggest problems communication? Here’s how you can work to improve your groups communication skills.

  7. Communication • Requires a sender, a message, and a receiver • The sender first generates a thought which can be a concept, feelings, idea, or information then is encoded which a message is sent to a receiver. • The receiver decodes or translates the words or symbols into a concept of information that he or she can understand.

  8. How to transition from one e-board to another

  9. This resource talks about techniques to use for transitioning in groups, such as a new environment or new peers. • And an example of that would be SOLC and how we have a new e-board and new members. • One way we used to transition was the retreat that was held at the beginning of the semester. • The technique we used was one conducted by Buck which he believes if you set enough time for people to sit down and get to know each other, it smooths out a transition and get to know people's strengths and weaknesses.
