Young California Members Share Insights about DKG Membership

Visit the DKG California State Organization website (Chi State)  and click on the box for the "Enlightening  Video of the Young DKG Members Panel Sharing Their Perspective During the Chi State Convention."   As six young panelists discuss membership in DKG you will laugh, you will cry and you will be inspired. The full video lasts a little over a half hour, but you will enjoy every minute!  Research shows the new generation of members and employees want engaging experiences with opportunities for leadership.

Check out the Chi State website and resources like the XYZ University for more ideas about attracting and engaging young members.  XYZ University CEO Sarah Sladek will be a keynote speaker at the 2014 International Convention in Indianapolis - will you be there?

From the Mountains to the Ocean

What a wonderful month it has been!  I was privileged to join two different state organizations for
meetings/conventions. The Wyoming State Organization Leadership Training was held in Casper during the last weekend in April. Members from throughout the state met to share strategies for strengthening chapters and conduct the business of the organization.  These amazing women are ready to guide Wyoming DKG into the future.






I spent the first weekend in May with members of Massachusetts enjoying the sights of Plymouth and  celebrating DKG.  From authors sharing book excerpts to singers performing broadway music and business meetings to workshops, the weekend included something for everyone.  I look forward to reuniting with a new friend who plans to celebrate her fiftieth year of membership in Indianapolis at the 2014 International Convention. Will you join us there?
