[MR] Seminar Day at Atlantian 30 Year.

[egeorges]

Greetings,

 

With all of the discussion about why people leave and why people stay, this
seems an opportune time to let folks know that there will be a special
Chatelaine's Seminar Day - a series of classes on recruitment and retention.
This series of classes has been developed over the past 18 months and has
been delivered around the Knowne World - nine Kingdoms so far.  You do not
need to be a Chatelaine to participate in these classes.  In fact, I
encourage anyone who's interested in growing our Society to attend.  The
classes will be held on the Sunday of Atlantian 30 Year.

 

11:00 am - 12 noon - How to be an Effective Chatelaine 102: The advanced
course

Being a chatelaine is not just about giving demos and holding newcomer
meetings.  Learn the tips, the tricks and the things that can trip you up.

 

12:00 noon - 1:00 pm - Growing the SCA 2.0

Learn why everything you think you know about recruitment and retention just
might be wrong.  What works, what doesn't.  And yes, we'll be talking about
those census results..

 

1:00 pm - 2:00 pm - Society Chatelaine Roundtable

This is your chance to share what your observations are, what you see in
your local group and Kingdom.  Ask questions, bring concerns, and talk about
solutions.

 

2:00 pm - 3:00 pm - Transplanting in the SCA

Think welcoming a transplant in your midst is just like welcoming any other
newcomer?  Think again.  Learn why you need a different mindset for this
type of newcomer in your Kingdom.

 

3:00 pm - 4:00 pm --  Communication for Chatelaines

Making a difference in a local group takes the effort of the whole group.
Learn how to get people listening, how to motivate change, and how to deal
with obstacles.  Learn the skills that will make you effective at making
change.

 

With all of the enthusiasm I am seeing on this list for recruitment and
retention, I am looking forward to seeing you all there!

 

Yours In Service,
