- Title
Chapter Checkup and Strengthening: The Colorado State Organization Model.
- Authors
Kerr, Loretta B.; Pettit, Sue L.
- Abstract
Many local chapters of Delta Kappa Gamma are struggling to attract and maintain membership. As a result, and in response to international initiatives, state organization leaders must promote strong training, discussion, and strategic planning to reverse this dismal trend. The authors share the results of work at the 2012 Colorado State Organization Leadership Conference, where chapter leaders collaborated to find a chapter-strengthening strategy that might work across the state--a strategy that would support chapter cultures and void disinterest and weak participation at all levels. State leaders are training chapter leaders in use of the Chapter Checkup Rubric and strengthening process, and initial results suggest that chapters using the rubric are revitalized and individual members are excited about leading into the future and inviting new members to join.
