(Our earlier post was slightly glitchy)...here's the repost:
π» Monday Membership Minute β and this week I'm asking a practical question.
When you look around your club, do you see your community? π
Not a perfect reflection β nobody expects that. But when you think about the people who actually live and work in your town β the retired teacher, the young professional, the small business owner, the newcomer down the street β are any of them at your table?
Here's the practical reality: a club with members from all walks of life has reach into every corner of the community. Different networks. Different connections. Different doors that can be opened.
That's a membership advantage. Plain and simple.
This week's challenge: think about who isn't at the table yet. Then make one specific move β one outreach, one invitation, one new relationship β to bring someone in who might not have found their way there otherwise.
Your community is made up of all kinds of people. Your club will be stronger for reflecting that. π
π» Monday Membership Minute β and this week I'm asking the question nobody puts in the membership manual. π
Is your club fun?
Not forced-icebreaker fun. Actually fun. The kind where people linger after the meeting because they're not ready to leave. Where the drive home feels lighter than the drive there.
Here's the truth: people join organizations they respect. But they stay in organizations they enjoy. π
Fun isn't a distraction from the Kiwanis mission. It's what makes the mission sustainable. People volunteer for a cause they believe in β but they come back decade after decade for a community they love.
This week's challenge: take an honest look at your last few meetings. Did anyone laugh? Did people stay after β or bolt for the parking lot?
If the answer makes you a little uncomfortable β good. That's useful information. And fun is fixable. It starts with one great meeting where the people in the room matter more than the agenda.
That's the club people recruit for without being asked. π
