Growth is NOT the Goal

July 2018

At the BNI National Conference Tim Roberts, who the U.S. National Director gave a presentation  entitled 'Growth is NOT the Goal.' (You should be able to access it via BNI University.)  I think it is an excellent presentation to listen to in order to understand the 'Why' behind Growth.   

This is a great information for every BNI Chapter member and especially good for the Leadership Team, Membership Committee, Growth Coordinator, and Power Team Coordinator.  In fact, I will be assigning this to these incoming positions.

In Tim's presentation he gives the 'Why' behind Growth.  It's not just to build a chapter to a certain number, but it's more about being strategic and growing the chapter with a purpose - to balance the chapter, so that every member has an equal opportunity to succeed.

When you access the presentation on BNI University, you will be able to see Tim's Power Point presentation and some other resource documents to help you map out and see where your chapter is perhaps out of balance and needs to grow.  Because if everyone has a strong Power Team, then every member should be benefiting from their membership.

After you listen to the presentation, I would love to hear your feedback.
