Good Morning Chapter Leaders!

Just back from facilitating a four-day leadership institute in Dallas.

It was a lot of fun - and kept me on my toes!

The Road Show Host teams are starting to sign up.

Will share first dates later this week.

Do you want to bring me to your community to train volunteer leaders?

Check out the Lazy Leader Road Show

Now let's talk Playground!

Playfully Yours,

Cynthia

First Impressions Make or Break Your Team

Whenever you launch a new board or committee, you have one shot at creating a dynamic team.

First impressions matter big time.

Your first meeting tells your team:
  • What kind of leader you are.
  • What it's going to be like to work with you.
  • If they will have a valuable time.
Based on this first experience, your team members will decide what kind of priority to give to volunteering with you.

Join us on June 18th to learn how to give your team a strong start.

You'll be amazed at the difference it makes!

Who Cares if That's NOT How We've Always Done It!

Have you ever felt like pulling your hair out when you hear these sacred words...

That not how we've always done it!

It's one thing to honor foundation and the hard work that got you to where you are.

It's another to refuse to consider anything new - because it's new.

Learn how to help members explore with comfort and embrace new ideas.

You may learn how to make some new ideas even irresistible!
