Improving Group Leadership
At our March breakfast meeting, we discussed ideas and suggestions for making our group better, i.e. improving group leadership and thereby increasing member participation. Toward this end, we will be extending invitations to GreenGirls members to take on leadership in more personally meaningful ways, targeted to each member’s personal passion and expertise. So we will have Team Leaders for particular subject areas or topics.
The subject areas would coincide with our weblink categories, including but not limited to:
- Community Building
- Energy Efficiency
- Environment/Habitat
- Food
- Green Businesses
- Inspiration
- Natural Health
- Organic Gardening
- Recycling
- Renewable Energy
- Waste Management
Each Team Leader would be responsible for sponsoring at least one GreenGirl event over a designated period of time, say one year. The event could be coordinating a guest speaker event or other activity related to the leader’s designated subject area. Of course, GreenGirls would be encouraged to hold more than one event during the year if they would like to do so.
Would you consider being a Team Leader for your favorite subject area over the next year? Please be sure to let us know if you are interested!
By the way, if you have any reservations about being a Team Leader, please let us know. We want it to be a win-win for all of us, so let us know how it would work best for you.
