Last year … We had sporadic and poorly announced general body meetings in ever-changing locations to which nobody ever came…so nobody ever talked to anyone else!
Our project teams didn’t realize they were part of a bigger organization. And our campus didn’t realize we existed
What we did about it: • invoked a sense of ESW as a community • made sure members felt acknowledged, appreciated, and busy! • Interacted with our • campus • Developed a plan to • leave behind an active • and aware leadership
Turning ESW into a community • Regular GBMs • Always started with project updates • Regularly provided snacks • Got T-shirts • Threw social events • Didn’t see any decrease in • membership halfway through • the semester!
Acknowledging Members • Always acknowledged help in GBMs • Encouraged members to take on new projects and incentives … they are the future leaders of the organization! • Made sure all officers and project leaders played an important role
Interacted with Campus • Threw tabling events • Kept everyone informed • about campus events • Threw a fundraiser • Submitted grant • proposals for smaller • projects on campus
Will leave behind leaders • Plan to create a • binder full of • simple how-tos • and • Pick leaders well • before summer
