“Avoid the 'Blockbuster Effect' and Build Chapter Longevity”

In our post-pandemic world, we have seen many triumphs and obstacles relating to chapter maintenance and growth. In this session, we will discuss the “Blockbuster Effect” and how it relates to the ever-changing culture and landscape of maintaining and growing a healthy chapter. We will discuss resources and innovative approaches to building a lasting chapter legacy and acknowledging those who have served, as well as how to “pass the baton” to ensure chapter longevity.
